Examine: Nisar rules out presence of IS militants in Pakistan
A day earlier, a grenade attack on Rangers personnel injured a soldier, which was rumoured to be linked with the IS.
The pro-IS wall chalking has appeared at a time when people from different parts of the country are reaching Larkana in large numbers to observe the seventh death anniversary of former Pakistan Peoples Party Chairman and the country's assassinated premier Benazir Bhutto.

How come our intelligence agencies and law enforcement institutions like local police could not arrest the culprits who were doing all this wall chalking ? If they cannot arrest these persons then how come they will arrest the other notorious terrorists

We cannot run away from the fact that ISIS supporters are among us. It is already there. Just that we like to stay ignorant.

Pro-IS wall chalking Is happening off and on in various cities of PK. The Govt must take action against their ideology bearers and supporters. Their inefficiency and denial of reality provide freedom to terrorists to practice their agendas with ease.

Do not allow militants operating under any name to bring catastrophe on Pakistan as they are doing in Iraq and Syria. Even after the innocent blood of our children if someone is still supporting these monsters either materially or ideologically, they should be treated the same way. The reason is very simple, without their ideological supporters on which, their brutalities are based, they do not have moral support and justification to carry on with their activities. Therefore, both should be taken to task at the same manners.

The wall chalking apparently has been done during wee hours and in hurry for fear of arrest or being seen by someone.

Strengthen intelligence; catch these elements and hand them over to Military Courts. Critics; please stop talking against Islam or Muslims' learning their religion, if you have any respect of your religion. This is not a situation adequate for point scoring or making fun.
