He left for London with his wife and daughter, his son is residing there already.....where did he get all this money from? Do Journalists in Pakistan make a lot of money?

A very good move. After all there is no save in the dictatorship of Nawaz in the Pakistan.

He know better he know about all 9yards ,he think he is very very patriots , I bet you he is not coming back , he is not covering any story TTP he wasn't honest person any way . All cases coming to him now that's why he left . What a LOOOSER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

May be another applicant for British nationality

@NHM : this kind of trade mint a lot of money -

@NHM:"Do Journalists in Pakistan make a lot of money?" Some do. But gambling six rounds for it !

Now they will start showering him with awards after awards every now and then.

@NHM India is indebted to him for the services he has done for his motherland. We will make all resources available for Mir to live his life comfortably along with his wife and children. I we need him further, we can take more of his services for the nation like our another son of the soil Tarik Fateh is doing for mother India. Jai Hind

We don't need talbans or their supports in Pakistan anyway.Pls stay there n don't come back.

Why mention his flight details and personal information? Why are people curious to know whether he left with his family or alone. A simple "he left for medical treatment" would have sufficed. Why do we need to know that much about his personal life?

@NHM Of course they make good money, if they are on some big super power's payroll

Good for him. Pakistan is no longer a place to live in as it used to be. Sad but reality!

Urdu medium journalist's son studying in London !

@m. a yes dear good decision taken by mir here is no one give him justice there he must be safe

good decision

The one who used to taunt others for going to London, left himself. Shame.

Oh puleez. He is one of the top TV personalities in Pakistan. I am sure he is paid more than enough for his show! Use your common sense, everyone is so cynical these days. I hope he gets well soon. His injuries must have been quite severe for him to seek further treatment abroad.

Sorry for nhm . a person is forced to leave the country for speaking for common man s right . I hope Allah blessed him and protect him

This joker is not able to find any serious doc in Pakistan?

Great escape. Could be would be may be.....is a subliminal message. It's a self exile indeed.

@Abdul Malik He was on the world largest poor super power's payroll, not US.

He went there to get dictation from his masters, US/UK

Malalla --- part II .... good luck

He is becoming Malala 2. From London he will apply Asylum & then speak against Army & Pakistan as like many Traitors have done. Traitor

of course his visit will be prolonged, who wants to live in Pakistan of today? He may seek asylum too, he has a solid evidence to back it up as well.

@NHM you have no idea, they make more money in a month what an aam admi in Pakistan makes in years.

@Fahd Good point, the reason is plain and simple, our journalists are illiterate with no common sense, and tons of ego.

Only one comment ...HAHAHA....Hypocrisy being proven once again. The person who used to taunt others for living in UK now moving there with his family. The west will make him a hero. We are sick and tired of him but now will have to read his news. Sickening.

Stay COULD be prolonged. Who give hints like this? #selfexile

Why do all these flaming Islamists of Pakistan run to the west when they need medical attention? Shouldnt these hypocrites refuse treatment and leave it to Allah to decide whether they live or die?

@Nero It is thanks to terrorist sympathizers like Hamid Mir and Imran Khan that Pakistan is no longer the country it used to be.

Hamid Mir names is son "Yasser Arafat" in honor of the now-proven corrupt palestinian who had his own wife and daughter enjoy life in Paris while he trained other people's children to become suicide bombers. Then Mir sends his son to UK to benefit from the fruits of western civilization, while himself conducting pro-terrorist and anti-west propaganda in Pakistan.

I understand he is getting a flat near Altaf Hussain. Musharraf has a flat near the same place also. I do not know about Zardari but Qaderi lives in Canada. They all are leaders of POOR people.

Please track Mr Hamid Mir as there are reports that he will fly to Tel AVIV from London for treatment or maybe consultations.

@NHM He was a TV host. He made good money. Geo will help him. While you will keep wondering, for the rest of your life.

@A Khan Absolutely right. Britain wants people like Taslima Nasreen, Salman Rushdie and the likes.

@hidayat Even ex - JI amir's son studied in USA, BB all children studied where ? public school in Larkana? Ik children are studing in Public school in Tobateksingh? Qadiri doing his medical checkups in Toronto - and Fasaad in Islamabad. Mir works for a private tv channel - private tv channel survives due to ratings -not by rants like you . Get real. Now MIR will beam programs from London - BBC, Aljazeera , etc -- start columns in other major outlets - how Govt of Pakistan or PEMRA - WILL GOING TO SILENCE HIM ? In this day and age - news travel much faster than the speed of sound - those of you who thinks that it can be stopped - censure it - or block it - lives in fools paradise . As the other reader commented - now Mir will be showered with awards and stay in lime light - and will be covered and heard more than before. Now people will listen to him and believe him more than before. His opponents further isolated and put on more defensive ..Firing six bullets was not a good idea

I am not his fan but seeing the kind of negative remarks here for a person who survived six bullet reveals the sick mentality prevailing in our society.

Hope President of Pakistan will announce "civil award" for Hamid Mir.

@Zafar These are indoctrationated minds. Representing dynastic oligarchs of this country.

Wow. where are the culprit? no one knows an every one ......

So sad to read so many negative comments. Not good. Poor guy was shot six times and barely survived and all people do is find faults.

What happened to judicial Commission inquiry?

We must feel sorry about what has been done with this person instead of maligning him. He got six bullets and many injuries just for the sake of his county.

@Imran He is clever, honest and independent journalist - not a mouth piece of any institutions - he paid this price with 6 bullets in his body - he is not the looser - we are. Pakistan will be poor without him.

@Nero speak for yourself - you do not represent Pakistan.

@hidayat I can see soar grapes here!!

@SK Well said! Remember majority consists of fools and followers - they lack the ability to think independently and objectively!

@irfan There is something called right to free speech - this right is a fundamental human value which must be protected.

@fk Same that happened to other JC inquiries in Pakistan. Poor man did not get justice and had to flee!!

@w. Could not agree more - talent flights away from this country and we are not bothered. The only Nobel Prize winner scientist had to leave the country for his safety.

@Fahd true unfortunately its a big flaw in our society they're always snooping about others personal lives and activities...it should be like "live and let live"Geo's slogan :)

@Aurang Thanks for the reality check!

@hidayat That is pathetic!!
