Independent candidate shot dead in North Waziristan
2024-01-11
[GEO.TV] An election hopeful — among two others — was rubbed out in North Wazoo after unknown assailants opened fire on them, local police officials said Wednesday.

The independent candidate, identified as Kaleemullah Khan, was eyeing to contest polls for Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Assembly's PK-104, the law enforcers informed Geo News.

Police said the incident occurred in the Tappi village of the district when Kaleemullah was busy with his election campaign. "He was injured in a kaboom recently as well," the law enforcers added.

In a separate incident, Pakistain Moslem League-Nawaz's (PML-N) candidate for NA-258 Aslam Buledi sustained injuries during a firing incident in Turbat
...The turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) is a relatively large species of flatfish in the family Scophthalmidae. It is highly prized as a food fish. It is a valuable commercial species, acquired through aquaculture and trawling. Turbot are farmed in Bulgaria, Canada, France, Spain, Portugal, Romania, Turkey, Chile, Norway, and China. Turbot has a bright white flesh that retains this appearance when cooked. Like all flatfish, turbot yields four fillets with meatier topside portions that may be baked, poached, steamed, or pan-fried. It has been called The King of the Sea because of its exquisite flavor.

Turbat is a city in Pakistain located in southern Balochistan. It has nothing to do with the fish. Its primary industry appears to be murder. Don't go there, not even to visit

To recap, if it tastes good it's turbot. If you're being shot at, stabbed, choked, strangled, flung off a tall building, or piked it's Turbat, so get the hell out of there if you're not already dead. ...

The deadly attacks on candidates come as the country gears up for the February 8 general elections, with much hope of ridding the nation of problems — such as political turmoil, terrorism, and economic ills.

Last week, former member of the National Assembly and National Democratic Movement (NDM) leader Mohsin Dawar's convoy came under a gun attack by bandidos Lions of Islam in the Tappi village.
