@babadook That is because Dawn screens most of the comments. Surprised to see even legitimate comments being screened. On other article someone calling India names was shown. So tired of it.
Won't be surprised if even this comment doesn't appear.

Sad for the siblings and parents. Losing a child is the worst incident in life. Parents as long they'll live cannot forget. Oh, Muslims remember Allaha and stay away from this kind of acts.

No comments from the chief minister Sindh, governor Sindh, commissioner Karachi. The life of poor is worth little if any in Pakistan. Please prove me wrong.
