Justice for Jokhio and the citizens’ demands

Nazim Jokhio is the first citizen of Pakistan to lay down his life to protect the endangered migratory Houbara Bustards. He deserves our respects and the highest national award for courage and conscience – while the rest of the country did not bat an eyelid.

November 3, 2021:

Nazim Jokhio was brutally tortured, repeatedly hit with hard and blunt objects and killed. The obsequious Pakistani Foreign Ministry, the cruel Arabs and the barbaric local politicians and Waderas colluded to commit his murder. Nazim Jukhio was brutally murdered at a Malir farmhouse called Jam House, which is owned by Pakistan People’s Party lawmakers and local feudal lords Jam Awais Khan Bijar and Jam Abdul Karim Bijar. The two named murderer Waderas were neither terminated nor suspended from their assembly seats.

Nov 18, 2021:

Nazim’s brother succumbs under pressure, retracts his statement and requests the judicial magistrate that the name of the lawmaker’s elder brother, PPP MNA Jam Abdul Karim, be removed from the first information report (FIR). That left SIX people — the MPA, his two guards and three Sindh Wildlife Department officials in police custody.

January 13, 2022: Five men accused of murdering Nazim Jokhio were made to escape from Karachi’s Malir Court after they were denied bail. Only an absolutely corrupt and inept police would allow this to happen. It could also be an efficient police that has increasingly become the criminal arm of the killer politicians.

That leaves just ONE person in police custody. Come next hearing, and the last man may well be the one to escape from the court, to forever find refuge with the Arab goons, for whose pleasure he took the life of Nazim Jokhio.

Citizens demand:

1. A complete ban on Houbara Hunting for all foreigners and Pakistanis.

2. Foreign Office and the provincial Wild Life Department heads to be prosecuted for being involved in criminal and illegal hunting of endangered Houbara Bustards.

3. The MPA and MNA named in the first FIR be arrested, suspended from their assembly seats and awarded exemplary punishments if found guilty.

4. The wife and children of Nazim Jokhio be provided security as well as financial support by the state to enable them to lead a decent life.
