-
Non-citizens to vandalize property
-
Crowd violence without arrests
-
Identity confusion to replace policing
Yet in Islamabad, the absence of official statements allowed ethnic narratives to replace legal process within hours.
As of early January 1, 2026, no official statement had been issued by:
-
Islamabad Capital Territory administration
-
ICT Police
-
Park View City management
Into that silence rushed outrage, denial, and collective blame.
The Most Dangerous Lie in the Discourse
One claim repeated relentlessly deserves direct rejection:
“All Pashtuns are Afghan nationals.”
This is false, irresponsible, and constitutionally absurd.
Millions of Pashtuns are Pakistani citizens.
They are not guests.
They are not deportable.
They are not responsible for the actions of any foreign national.
Conflating them is not just racist—it protects actual offenders by dissolving responsibility into noise.
