Abdul Rashid Ghazi’s last minutes

“army commandos spotted Ghazi and his three guards trying to escape from a breach in the wall created by the army to rescue the women and children held hostage in the Jamia Hafsa compound. Ghazi and his guards were heading towards the nullah /= steep narrow valley (my comment)/ behind the Jamia Hafsa madrassa.

“The commandos chased Ghazi and his guards and the latter took refuge in a room near the breach in the wall. One of Ghazi’s guards, an Uzbek, fired on a commando who was trying to take a look inside the room. The militant’s bullet missed the commando, who retaliated, killing all the four men inside,” said the source.”

That report sounds like BS planted by the ISI. To date, I ain't seen no Uzbek body and as such most of the terrorists killed in Pakistan are Pakistanis - Punjabis or Pashtuns. This Ghazi fella was just an ISI asset gone bad and they want to cover up the breadcrumbs leading back to ISI HQ. There's no other logical explanation for how a small army established itself in a compound less than half a mile from ISI HQ.

As a rule, I roll my eyes whenever I hear Pakistanis claim "Uzbek" or "Chechen" terrorist kills.
