It's retaliation by elements from parties who do not want Rangers.

Very sad.
Policemen have become the preferred target of terrorists and target killers. Yet some people still oppose the operation by Rangers. Pity the thinking of such people.

Very sad to see innocent Traffic cops being gunned down. IG Police Sir please take care of the poor families and orphans they have left behind.
May their souls come and haunt the killers from their Godly abode.

Rangers and all other law enforcement agencies should come down even harder on such murderous elements. After they are arrested, their cases should be sent immediately to military courts for speedy justice.
