Metropolitan 

Pakistan saddened over execution 

of JI leader in Bangladesh 

KARACHI, Sep 4: Pakistan 

has expressed deepest condolences 

to the bereaved family 

of Mir Quasem Ali, a key 

Jamaat-e-Islami leader executed 

in Bangladesh on Saturday. 

People of Pakistan arranged 

showed their immense anger 

and sorrow and participated in 

protests, rallies and absentia 

funeral prayers throughout the 

country on Sunday. 

“Pakistan is deeply saddened 

over the execution of 

Mir Quasem Ali for the 

alleged crimes committed 

before December 1971, 

through a flawed judicial 

process,” said a statement 

issued by Foreign Office 

spokesperson Nafees Zakaria 

late on Saturday. 

Ali was executed after 

being convicted by a controversial 

war crimes tribunal for 

offences committed during the 

1971 independence conflict 

with Pakistan. 

The 63-year-old was 

hanged at the Kashimpur high 

security jail in Gazipur, some 

40 kilometres (25 miles) north 

of Dhaka, amid stepped-up 

security outside the prison and 

in the capital. 

Pakistan said the act of suppressing 

the opposition, 

through flawed trials is completely 

against the spirit of 

democracy. 

“Ever since the beginning 

of the trials, several international 

organisations, human 

rights groups and international 

legal figures have raised 

objections to the court proceedings, 

especially regarding 

fairness and transparency as 

well as harassment of lawyers 

and witnesses representing the 

accused. 

Urging Bangladesh to 

uphold its commitment, as per 

the Tripartite Agreement of 

1974, wherein it “decided not 

to proceed with the trials as an 

act of clemency”, the 

spokesperson said recriminations 

for political gains are 

counter-productive. 

“Pakistan believes that 

matters should be addressed 

with a forward looking 

approach in the noble spirit of 

JI would not put Karachiites on the mercy 

of thugs, asks ex MQM workers to join JI 

KARACHI, Sep 4: Jamaat-e- 

Islami (JI) Karachi chief 

Engr. Hafiz Naeem-ur- 

Rehman on Sunday inaugurated 

several party offices in 

Orangi Town, Surjani , SITE 

and Metrovill areas, in connection 

with the JI’s membership 

campaign. 

On the occasion, some rallies 

were also taken out. 

Speaking on the occasion, 

Engr. Naeem said that the JI 

is a party of common men. 

He added that JI would not 

put Karachiites on the mercy 

of thugs. 

The JI leader rejected the 

policy of targeting some 

groups within the Muttahida 

Qaumi Movement (MQM,) 

while sparing others. He said 

that the people of Karachi 

had already witnessed such 

political games in past and 

the people are aware of the 

fact that across the board 

accountability is the only 

option for a durable peace in 

the city. He further said that 

the clear discrimination 

while dealing with groups of 

a party has created doubts on 

the intentions of those in the 

corridors of power. He made 

it clear that joining PSP of 

some other party should not 

be tantamount to waver of 

cases against any criminal.

High prices of sacrificial 

animals keep buyers at bay 

KARACHI: A sacrificial animal off loads from upper storey of 

a house with the help of crane for sacrifice on the occasion 

of Eid-ul-Azha coming ahead, at Nazimabad. 

KARACHI, Sep 4: Prices 

of all sacrificial animals 

have risen sharply as Eid ul 

Azha nears, keeping the 

buyers at bay. 

According to survey, prices 

of sacrificial animals have 

almost doubled as compared 

to normal days. There are less 

number of animals brought to 

the city from various parts of 

the country, especially from 

remote areas, but their prices 

are high. Traders say since 

prices of fodder had gone 

high, they are forced to sell 

their animals at high prices. 

“How can we afford to sell 

our animals at a low cost when 

we spend heavily to feed 

them,” a trader said. 

“Till few years ago, I sacrificed 

a goat regularly on every 

Eid ul Azha but this year it is 

out of my reach,” said Asif, a 

shopkeeper. 

Another government 

employee said, “Buying a sacrificial 

animal is a dream 

now.” This year, the trend of 

joint sacrifice is increasing 

due to high prices of animals. 

This year, the city district 

government has set up seven 

animal markets in Potohar 

Town. To avoid traffic rush 

and keep the provincial 

metropolis clean, the temporary 

markets have been set up 

outside the city. 

At some markets, there 

are only goats and sheep 

while at others, cows can 

also be seen. Only a small 

number of camels are seen in 

the animal markets. 

He said that how it is possible 

that people become 

clear of all charges all atonce 

when they switch to 

another group or party from 

MQM. Politics of favoritism 

would not be tolerated in 

Karachi, he added. The JI 

leader further said that cosmetic 

measures will do nothing 

in curbing the terrorist 

elements under umbrellas of 

political parties. 

Sang-e-Marmar 

KARACHI, Sep 4: HUM TV’s 

latest play, Sang-e-Marmar is a 

saga of love, betrayal and 

revenge and lies that can destroy 

families and relations. The story 

revolves around childhood 

friends Shireen and Aurang. 

Shireen grows up thinking that 

Aurang is her life partner while 

Aurangalwaysconsidersherasa 

good friend. In the pursuit of his 

dreams,Aurang forgets about his 

childhood friendship. Shireen 

feels betrayed and embarks on a 

series of vendettas that fill both 

the families with hatred and animosity 

and they become sworn 

enemies. 

Will Shireen ever realize her 

mistake? Will she be able to

ignited for herself and those 

around her?

reconciliation,” it said. 

Six opposition leaders have 

now been executed for war 

crimes after the secular government 

led by Prime Minister 

Sheikh Hasina set up a domestic 

war crimes tribunal in 

2010. With Ali’s death, all five 

top leaders of the Jamaat party 

have been hanged. 

The executions and convictions 

of Jamaat officials 

plunged Bangladesh into one 

of its worst crises in 2013 

when tens of thousands of 

activists clashed with police in 

protests that left some 500 people 

dead. Rights groups have 

criticised the war crimes trials, 

saying they were flawed and 

lack any foreign oversight. 

A group of United Nations 

human rights experts last 

week urged Bangladesh to 

annul Ali’s death sentence and 

to retry him in compliance 

with international standards. 

But Hasina’s government has 

defended the trials, saying 

they are needed to heal the 

wounds of the conflict, which 

it says left three million people 

dead. Independent researchers 

put the war toll much lower.

EDITORIAL 

Human Intellect And Wisdom Challenged: 

‘Wars, Arms, Deaths’ Is It All For ‘Peace’!? 

(I) 

BIG powers’ some unjust leaders use for their good 

and bad monopolies the UNO as a world chess 

board. Their and their satellite pawn states’ some 

unjust leaders together play this monopoly, enslaving 

their own nations. 

MONOPOLY of some unjust leaders’from big powers 

and their UNSC installed favorite national gangsters 

worldwide make national governments who abuse their 

own peoples. 

DEATHS of nations happen when these rulers force 

their own nations live a life without human goodness, 

principles, morality starved of life’s necessities collectively 

like law and order, justice, and basic infra structure 

and what all it takes in as essentials as basic education, 

spirituality and economics, utilities and compulsory constitutional 

rights and human civilities to make a nation 

live an honorable life. 

NATIONS starving of material as well as spiritual values 

live under constant fear of life and property, under 

bayonets and guns, bombs and suicidal driving in different 

countries, including the Western and Eastern, or in 

whatever capacity and description they’re rightly or 

wrongly classified. 

WARS are bad to dominate through war monger puppet 

leaders when wars and invaders kill rival soldiers 

whose duty it is to guard their own country, whatever 

country that happens to be. 

WORSE is the case when wars kill more innocent people 

than soldiers in many parts of what were once peaceful 

here and there in the world. Let us examine how human 

intellect and wisdom is challenged with wars, weapons, 

deaths and abuses all in the name of “peace”! All this can 

be immediately considered for counter measures and proper 

actions, or if not possible, then gradually reduced and 

outright stopped. It can be viewed that past is an indication 

of what can and ought to be done to deal against eruption 

of such volcanic crisis series in future too: 

FACTS and research claim that of the past 3,400 years, 

humans have been entirely at peace for 268 of them, or 

just 8 percent of recorded history. It’s a pity. This record 

can be reversed. All sane leaders can try it against insane 

ones! 

100-MILLION plus, at least 108 million to be precise, 

were killed in wars in the 20th century alone. Most of 

those wars were fought by fascist genetic loonies as well 

as ambitious militarists and arms manufacturers with 

world domination as their selling theme and marketing 

pitch to small and big leaders on regional and world scale. 

ONE-BILLION was a total number of people estimated 

to be killed in wars in most of the known and recorded 

human history, ranging from 150 million and upwards 

to one billion. Reduced birthrate during World War II is 

estimated to have caused a population deficit of more than 

20 million people. A World War III can be avoided, keeping 

in mind above casualty figures. 

COMBINED armed forces of the world until recently 

By Paulo Pinheiro 

The vote that sealed Michel Temer’s installation in 

power in Brazil took place precisely one week 

after the end of the Rio Olympic Games and just 

days before the G20 summit in China. Major disturbances 

were avoided during the Games and the new president 

was confirmed in his post just in time to take his 

flight and enjoy a convenient round of handshakes and 

photos with world leaders in China for the G20. 

Everything was carefully planned to make the arbitrary 

removal of a democratically-elected president look 

like business as usual. That’s not to say the new leadership 

in Brazil isn’t worried about whether it appears 

legitimate. Over the past few months, the alliance forged 

to oust Dilma Rousseff rejected calling the impeachment 

process that it was sponsoring a coup d’etat. Some even 

threatened to take legal action against those making this 

claim in official debates. Their narrative insisted that 

constitutional procedures were observed. 

It is true that, unlike the sudden impeachment carried 

out after just a couple of days in Paraguay in 2012 , or the 

clear use of force in Honduras in 2009 , formalities were 

observed in the surreal trial of Rousseff. For more than 

five months, alleged government accounting irregularities 

were treated as one of the most serious crimes in 

Brazilian political history and were carefully analysed by 

zealous legislators, including some accused of many 

crimes themselves, ranging from corruption to moneylaundering. 

Suddenly the same country that was capable of silently 

coping with a routine of impunity in notorious cases of 

state violence, such as the mass murder of street children 

or landless workers, became fixated on the legality of 

administrative budgeting orders. 

Irrespective of such bizarre and creative legal analysis, 

Rousseff’s fate was decided long before the last vote 

in the senate, by the collapse of the heterogeneous coalition 

that sustained her government and that made her 

easy prey of an ultra-conservative legislature rattled by 

uncontrolled corruption investigations. 

This transition sheds light on the structural weaknesses 

of Brazil’s democracy. The conservative congressmen 

who led the process of impeachment had been, in fact, 

key supporters of Rousseff, and of all other presidents of 

Brazil since the end of dictatorship in 1985. Without their 

support, government majority in parliament would be 

had 21.3 million people. China had the world's largest, 

with 2.4 million. America was second with 1.4 million. 

India had 1.3 million, North Korea 1 million, and Russia 

900,000. Of the world's 20 largest militaries, 14 were in 

developing nations. However, numbers are not as important 

as principles for armies to stick to their own national 

duty of protecting its own borders and citizens within their 

own countries. Going to war is a practice of kings in 

ancient times centuries ago, not leaders in 21st century! 

Ideas of Mideast kings can be shelved: At the beginning of 

2003 there were 30 wars going on around the world. 

There is no single "war gene." Combinations of genes can 

predispose a person to violence. Worldwide, 97 percent of 

today's military personnel are male. This is thought to be a 

reflection of culture and biology. 

AMERICA’S wars or those initiated by enemies of 

America to destroy USA, can be gradually reduced and 

even stopped, if US casualties are considered appropriately. 

Fifteen percent (204,000) military personnel are 

female. War is often regarded by observers as honorable 

and noble. It can be viewed as a contest between nations, 

a chance to compete and be declared the victor. More than 

650,000 Americans have been killed in combat. Another 

243,000 have died while wars were being fought, due to 

training accidents, injury, and disease. 

IT’s also equally important for other countries to 

refuse to be embroiled in any war. UN can expedite 

peace, and not sanction wars. Though, about 850,000 

Vietcong died in the Vietnam War, 18 times the 47,000 

U.S. dead. More than 600,000 North Korean and 1 million 

Chinese fighters died in the Korean War, almost 50 

times the 33,000 American dead. In World War II, 

3,250,000 German and 1,507,000 Japanese soldiers, 

sailors, and pilots were killed, 16 times the 291,000 

American servicemen who were killed. 

REDUCTION in budgets of war (called “defense”!, a 

misleading term) can be made for which nations can rise 

and make governments spend any cuts on development, 

education, healthcare and welfare. Since 1975, America 

has spent between 3 and 6 percent of its gross domestic 

product on national defense, or approximately 15 to 30 

percent of each year's federal budget. In the first years of 

the twenty-first century, this meant spending roughly 

$350 billion per year. From 1940 to 1996 (a period that 

includes several cycles of war and peace, including the 

arms race of the cold war), America spent $16.23 trillion 

on the military. The cost of the Gulf War was approximately 

$76 billion. Vietnam cost $500 billion; the 

Korean War, $336 billion; and World War II, almost $3 

trillion. Put another way, the Gulf War cost each person 

in the United States $306; Vietnam, $2,204 per person; 

Korea, $2,266 per person; and World War II, $20,388 per 

person. At its outset, estimates for the cost of the Iraqi 

War were $50 to $140 billion, and an additional $75 to 

$500 billion for occupation and peacekeeping, or from 

$444 to $2,274 per person. 

OPINION 

Rousseff is gone, but Brazil’s political crisis isn’t 

impossible. With the arrival of Temer to the top post, this 

collection of ultra-conservative and corrupt forces has 

finally achieved hegemonic control over the executive 

and legislative branches. 

Calm mood 

Even with the careful re-arrangement of forces in the 

parliament and the enthusiastic support of the Brazilian 

mainstream media (often controlled by politicians), it is 

hard to believe that Temer will enjoy the same calm 

mood he should now come across in China. Judicial 

investigations of corruption are still ongoing and threaten 

Temer personally and his most direct allies, and political 

polarisation remains at an all-time high in Brazil. 

The impeachment of Rousseff will leave deep scars in 

political and institutional life. Not only will the country 

be headed by an artificial leadership arrangement; the 

new coalition comes to power imposing a radical turn to 

the Right which was defeated in four previous elections. 

Law reforms are to be pushed through by the new leadership 

to undermine laws protecting workers and severely 

restricting mandatory expenditure in health and education 

over the next decades as the magical solution to 

restore global trust in the country’s economy. Parliament 

is also on the verge of concluding a stream of measures 

undermining rights in critical areas such as the defence of 

indigenous lands and the environment, as well as threatening 

sexual and reproductive rights. 

The Brazilian crisis is not unique. Perhaps as a late 

consequence of the global economic debacle of 2008, 

mainstream political forces in all regions are now dealing 

with very high levels of dissatisfaction and battling strident 

voices and movements. In some places, this new 

wave is resulting in violence and serious damage to the 

rule of law and democracy. 

In Brazil, it is clear that the combined economic and 

political crisis is offering a golden opportunity for an 

ultra-conservative alliance to regain control of power and 

demolish part of the legacy of the brief democratic experience. 

Such a dramatic ending of what was once believed to 

be one of the very few positive experiences of pragmatic 

Left leadership in the global south will certainly resonate 

beyond its borders, particularly in Latin America. 

The tasks of promoting democracy and human rights 

in an extremely unequal society are far more complex 

than Brazil once made the world believe.

ANKARA, Sep 4: It has been 

a year since the dead body of 

Aylan Kurdi, a Syrian refugee 

toddler, washed ashore on the 

beach of Bodrum, a Turkish

The Kabul-Kandahar 

highway passes through militancy-prone 

areas and many

Afghanistan has some of 

the world’s most dangerous 

roads, often in dilapidated 

condition and traffic rules 

are seldom enforced. 

Many in the country rely 

on old and rickety passenger 

vehicles, meaning that high

are common.

Putin-Erdogan looking 

to restore ties between 

Russia-Turkey 

HANGZHOU, Sep 4: Russian 

President Vladimir Putin and 

his Turkish counterpart Recep 

Tayyip Erdogan backed on 

Saturday the healing of relations 

between their nations, 

damaged by Ankara s shooting 

down of a Russian war plane 

last year. 

"There is still a lot to do in 

order to completely re-establish 

cooperation in all areas," 

said Putin, after the bilateral 

meeting in Guangzhou on the 

eve of a G20 summit in the 

southern Chinese city. 

"Turkey is going through a 

difficult period, fighting 

against terrorism in the face of 

serious terrorist crimes," he 

said. Putin added "I am sure 

that... we can go forward on 

our path of cooperation" once 

the situation in Turkey is 

"completely normalised". 

Turkey and Russia normalised 

ties in June after 

Erdogan sent a letter to Putin 

expressing regret over the 

shooting down of a Russian 

war plane on the Syrian border 

last November which had 

caused an unprecedented crisis 

in their relations. 

The following month 

Erdogan survived a coup 

attempt by a rogue military 

faction and in August the 

Turkish leader met Putin during 

a highly symbolic visit to 

Russia, his first foreign trip 

since the failed coup.

Turkish tanks roll into Syria, opening new line of attack 

TURKEY, Sep 4: Turkey 

and its rebel allies opened a 

new line of attack in northern 

Syria on Saturday, as 

Turkish tanks rolled across 

the border and Syrian fighters 

swept in from the west to 

take villages held by Islamic 

State. 

The incursion was 

launched by Turkey from 

Kilis province – an area frequently 

targeted by Islamic 

State rockets – and coincided 

with a separate push by 

the Turkish-backed Syrian 

rebels, who seized several 

villages further to the east. 

By supporting the rebels, 

mainly Arabs and Turkmen 

fighting under the loose 

banner of the Free Syrian 

Army, Turkey is hoping to 

drive out Islamic State militants 

and check the advance 

of U.S.-backed Syrian 

Kurdish fighters. The rebels 

last week took the frontier 

town of Jarablus with 

Turkish support. 

Pope proclaims Mother Teresa of Calcutta a saint 

VATICAN CITY, Sep 4: 

Mother Teresa of Calcutta, 

known as the “saint of the 

gutters” during her life, was 

declared a saint of the Roman 

Catholic Church by Pope 

Francis on Sunday, fasttracked 

to canonization just 

19 years after her death. 

Tens of thousands of pilgrims 

packed St. Peter’s 

Square at the Vatican for a 

service to honor the tiny nun, 

who worked among the 

world’s neediest in the slums 

of the Indian city now called 

Kolkata and become one of 

the most recognizable faces 

of the 20th century. 

A Nobel peace laureate, 

her legacy complements Pope 

Francis’s vision of a humble 

church that strives to serve 

the poor, and the festivities in 

her honor are a highlight of 

his Holy Year of Mercy, 

which runs until Nov. 8. 

Standing under a canvas 

hung from St. Peter’s Basilica 

showing the late nun in her 

blue-hemmed white robes, 

Francis said she was a “dispenser 

of divine mercy” and 

held world powers to account 

“for the crimes of poverty 

they created”. 

“For Mother Teresa, 

mercy was the salt which 

gave flavour to her work, it 

was the light which shone in 

the darkness of the many who 

no longer had tears to shed for 

their poverty and suffering.” 

Around 120,000 people 

attended the ceremony, 

according to Vatican estimates, 

celebrating the life of a 

woman who Francis said it 

might be difficult to call 

“Saint” as people felt so close 

to her they spontaneously 

used “Mother”. 

“Everything she did gave 

an example to the entire 

world,” said 17-year-old student 

Massimiliano D’Aniello, 

from Grosseto, Italy, adding 

he had made a musical about 

her with his friends. 

“She showed we can’t all 

do everything, but little gestures 

made with so much love 

are what’s important.” 

Critics say she did little to 

alleviate the pain of the terminally 

ill and nothing to tackle 

the root causes of poverty. 

Atheist writer Christopher 

Hitchens made a documentary 

about her called “Hell’s 

Angel”. 

She was also accused of 

trying to convert the destitute 

in predominantly-Hindu 

India to Christianity, a charge 

her mission repeatedly 

denied. 

But Pope John Paul II, 

who met her often, had no 

doubt about her eligibility for 

sainthood, and put her on the 

route to canonization two 

years after her death instead 

of the usual five. 

As pilgrims from across 

the world gathered at the 

Vatican along with delegations 

from more than a dozen 

governments, the canonization 

was also celebrated in 

Skopje, the capital of modern 

Macedonia where Mother 

Teresa was born of Albanian 

parents in 1910 and became a 

nun aged 16.

Story Time 

A Hole in the Fence 

In a small village, a little boy lived with his father and mother. 

He was the only son.The parents of the little boy were very 

depressed due to his bad temper. The boy used to get angry 

very soon and taunt others with his words. His bad temper made 

him use words that hurt others. He scolded kids, neighbours and 

even his friends due to anger. His friends and neighbours avoided 

him, and his parents were really worried about him. 

His mother and father advised him many times to control his 

anger and develop kindness. Unfortunately, all their attempts 

failed. Finally, the boy’s father came up with an idea. 

One day, his father gave him a huge bag of nails. He asked his son to hammer one nail to 

the fence every time he became angry and lost his temper. The little boy found it amusing and 

accepted the task. 

Every time he lost his temper, he ran to the fence and hammered a nail. His anger drove 

him to hammer nails on the fence 30 times on the first day! After the next few days, the number 

of nails hammered on the fence was reduced to half. The little boy found it very difficult 

to hammer the nails and decided to control his temper. 

Gradually, the number of nails hammered to the fence was reduced and the day arrived 

when no nail was hammered! The boy did not lose his temper at all that day. For the next several 

days, he did not lose his temper, and so did not hammer any nail. 

Now, his father told him to remove the nails each time the boy controlled his anger. Several 

days passed and the boy was able to pull out most of the nails from the fence. However, there 

remained a few nails that he could not pull out. 

The boy told his father about it. The father appreciated him and asked him pointing to a 

hole, “What do you see there?” 

The boy replied, “a hole in the fence!” 

He told the boy, “The nails were your bad temper and they were hammered on people. You 

can remove the nails but the holes in the fence will remain. The fence will never look the same. 

It has scars all over. Some nails cannot even be pulled out. You can stab a man with a knife, 

and say sorry later, but the wound will remain there forever. Your bad temper and angry words 

were like that! Words are more painful than physical abuse! Use words for good purposes. Use 

them to grow relationships. Use them to show the love and kindness in your heart!” 

Moral – Unkind words cause lasting damage: Let our words be kind and sweet.

She opened the cage, and away there flew 

A bright little bird, as a short adieu 

It hastily whistled, and passed the door ; 

And felt that its sorrowful hours were o'er. 

An anthem of freedom it seemed to sing ; 

To utter its joy for an outspread wing 

That now it could sport in the boundless air; 

And might go any and every where. 

And Anna rejoiced in her bird's delight ; 

But her eye was wet, as she marked its flight ; 

Till, this was the song that she seemed to hear ; 

And, merrily warbled, it dried the tear :- 

"I had a mistress, and she was kind 

In all but keeping her bird confined. 

She ministered food and drink to me ; 

But oh ! I was pining for liberty ! 

" My fluttering bosom she loved to smoothe ; 

But the heart within it she could not soothe : 

I sickened and longed for the wildwood breeze, 

My feathery kindred, and fresh green trees. 

" A prisoner here, with a useless wing. 

I looked with sorrow on every thing. 

I lost my voice, I forgot my song, 

And mourned in silence the whole day long. 

" But I will go back with a mellower pipe, 

And sing, when the cherries are round and ripe ; 

On the topmost bough as I lock my feet 

To help myself, in my leafy seat. 

" My merriest notes shall there be heard 

To draw her eye to her franchised bird ; 

The burden, then, of my song shall be, 

Earth for the wingless; but air for me !" 

The Snow Flake 

"Now, if I fall, will it be my lot 

To be cast in some low and lonely spot, 

To melt, and to sink, unseen or forgot? 

And there will my course be ended ? 

"'Twas this a feathery Snow-flake said, 

As down through measureless space it strayed ; 

Or, half by dalliance, half afraid, 

It seemed in mid air suspended. 

"Oh, no !" said the Earth, " thou shalt not lie 

Neglected and lone, on my lap to die, 

Thou pure and delicate child of the sky ! 

For thou wilt be safe in my keeping. 

Krill 

Colour me 

The lowly krill averages only about two inches (five centimeters) 

in length, but it represents a giant-sized link in 

the global food chain. These small, shrimp-like crustaceans 

are essentially the fuel that runs the engine of the Earth’s 

marine ecosystems. 

Krill feed on phytoplankton, microscopic, single-celled 

plants that drift 

near the ocean’s 

surface and live 

off carbon dioxide 

and the sun’s 

rays. They in turn 

are the main staple 

in the diets of 

literally hundreds 

of different animals, 

from fish, 

to birds, to baleen 

whales. 

Fun Facts 

Type...............................Invertebrate 

Diet................................Herbivore 

Average life 

span in the wild.............5 years or more 

Size................................2.4 in (6 cm) 

Weight...........................0.035 oz (1 g) 

Group name..................Swarm 

Relative.........................Size relative to a 

paper clip 

Simply put, 

without krill, 

most of the life forms in the Antarctic would disappear. 

Alarmingly, there are recent studies that show Antarctic krill 

stocks may have dropped by 80 percent since the 1970s. 

Scientists attribute these declines in part to ice cover loss caused 

by global warming. This ice loss removes a primary source of 

food for krill: ice-algae. 

Pink and opaque, Antarctic krill are among the largest of the 

85 known krill species. Their estimated numbers range from 125 

million tons to 6 billion tons in the waters around Antarctica. 

During certain times of year, krill congregate in swarms so dense 

and widespread that they can be seen from space. 

Antarctic krill can live up to 10 years, an amazing longevity 

for such a heavily hunted creature. They spend their days 

avoiding predators in the cold depths of the Antarctic Ocean, 

some 320 feet (100 meters) below the surface. During the 

night, they drift up the water column toward the surface in 

search of phytoplankton.

CARDIFF, Sep 4: Pakistan bagged 

a consolation win in the five-match 

ODI series against England on 

Sunday with a four-wicket victory at 

Cardiff. 

England, sent in to bat first, managed 

302-9 in their 50 overs of play. 

Jason Roy’s 87 and Ben Stokes’ 75 

were instrumental. 

For Pakistan, Hasan Ali bagged 

four scalps while Mohammad Amir 

accounted for three batsmen. 

In their reply, Azhar Ali’s men, 

unusually, didn’t panic and chased 

the total down with four wickets and 

10 balls to spare. 

Sarfraz Ahmed’s 90 and Shoaib 

Malik’s 77 were the game-changer 

for the visitors who will now play 

the hosts in one-off T20I on 

September 7 at Manchester. 

For England, Mark Wood and 

debutante Liam Dawson picked two 

wickets each. 

Being in and out of the team 

does take a mental toll on 

any player: Sohail Tanvir 

Sports Reporter 

KARACHI, Sep 4: Thirty-oneyear-old 

all-rounder Sohail 

Tanvir spoke about his feelings 

on being recalled once again to 

the national squad, his performance 

so far in National Twenty20 

Cup, qualities needed for 

bowlers to succeed in the limited 

overs format and looked forward 

to the upcoming game against 

England. Sohail last played for 

the national team in a Twenty20 

game against England in the 

November of 2015. Despite 

being the fourth-highest wickettaker 

in the Twenty20 format for 

Pakistan behind Shahid Afridi, 

Saeed Ajmal and Umar Gul, he 

was later discarded for tours of 

New Zealand, Asia Cup and the 

World T20 in India. 

Facebook post earlier said that 

he would engage constructively 

on all issues and work 

towards finding solutions. 

"India will engage constructively 

on all the issues 

before us and work towards 

finding solutions and taking 

forward the agenda for a 

robust, inclusive and sustainable 

international economic 

order that uplifts the socioeconomic 

conditions of people 

across the world, especially 

those who need it most in 

developing countries," he said. 

Meanwhile, a foreign policy 

expert has said that the G20 

Summit will be an opportunity 

for China to promote its own 

development model and to 

push the G20 members to 

adopt a joint approach towards 

infrastructure finance. 

Swift payment of fertilizer 

subsidy to importers demanded 

20 billion aid for farmers in 

the budget while Ministry for 

Food Security has issued a 

notification for payment on 

subsidy on June 25 but FBR 

has not been able to pay the 

importers. 

Shahid Rasheed Butt said 

that tax authorities should 

only verify the imports and 

should not indulge in payment 

mechanism and this 

responsibility should be given 

to some other department to 

reduce risks to the sector 

which is already underperforming. 

An autonomous fertiliser 

department can help government 

narrow its bill and help 

millions of farmers who 

have suffered through the 

contraction in agriculture 

sector, he said. 

Moeen Ali commits to Bangladesh tour 

Dr M Arif Hafeez 

Sports Reporter 

KARACHI, Sep 4: Moeen Ali 

has become the first England 

player to confirm unreservedly 

that he will be available for the 

upcoming tour of Bangladesh. 

The future of the tour was in 

the balance after an attack on a 

Dhaka cafe in July killed 20 

mostly foreign hostages, with 

the Islamic State group claiming 

responsibility. But allrounder 

Ali, speaking in 

Cardiff ahead of England's 

fifth and final One-Day 

International (ODI) against 

Pakistan in the Welsh capital, 

said: If selected, I'll definitely 

go. I m pretty happy with 

everything and really looking 

forward to it, the 

Worcestershire off-spinner and 

left-handed batsman added. 

I've been there a few times, 

five or six. Following the 

Dhaka attack, the England and

Federation of Pakistan 

Chambers of Commerce and 

Industry (FPCCI) said that 

Brexit is likely to have positive 

gains on Pakistan horticultural 

exports to Europe 

and the UK in the long term 

interim of duties and less 

stringent phytosanitary 

norms. 

FPCCI Regional Standing 

Committee Chairman 

Ahmad Jawad said those 

horticulture exporters which 

have done long term contracts 

already, may have to 

bear some losses or increase 

prices once the Brexit may 

implemented. 

"We believe that the quarantine 

restrictions might liberalise 

for exports to UK. 

Now, UK will have to consider 

only its own quarantine 

concerns. Being a Northern 

Europe country, we expect it 

to have far fewer restrictions." 

he added. 

Jawad said Pakistani 

mangoes and fresh vegetables 

are one of major share in 

horticulture exports for UK 

and Pakistan may enhance 

the volumes through timely 

trade diplomacy with their 

authorities.

Federal Board of Revenue 

has granted sukuk transactions 

similar tax treatment to 

conventional bonds, the latest 

government incentive 

aimed at developing the 

country’s Islamic finance 

sector. 

In a statement late on 

Saturday, Pakistan’s capital 

market regulator – which 

recommended the change – 

described the move as a 

landmark decision, because 

previous tax treatments had 

made sukuk an “unviable” 

funding option. 

“This measure is a great 

boost for the Islamic financial 

industry and its overall 

growth and development,” 

the Securities and Exchange 

Commission of Pakistan 

(SECP) said. 

Around the world, taxation 

is often problematic for 

sukuk because of their assetbacked 

nature, which means 

multiple asset transfers may 

be required for a transaction 

to take place, creating a 

heavy tax burden for issuers 

unless special legislation is 

in place. 

Before the reform, tax 

exemptions were provided 

to Pakistani companies and 

special purpose vehicles 

(SPVs) for interest-based 

term finance certificates 

structured against receivables. 

But Pakistan’s sukuk 

regulations classified underlying 

assets in sukuk transactions 

as fixed assets, 

attracting additional taxes. 

The reform provides 

exemptions to taxable gains 

on the transfer of assets to a 

ECB said last month that the 

tour, which includes three 

ODIs and two Test match fixtures 

in October and 

November, would go ahead as

safe anywhere these days, said 

Ali. I think you can be anywhere 

and still not be 

safe.England assistant coach 

Paul Farbrace, who was with 

the Sri Lanka squad when their 

bus came under armed attack 

in Lahore in 2009, has also

and luckily we have that 

resource which needs to be 

tapped through setting up 

international accelerated 

quality examination labs in 

the country. 

FPCCI Standing 

Committee Chairman also 

demanded that Pakistan have 

to pursue a new course of line 

for trade and commerce with 

the UK on priority basis. 

“We are expecting a package 

of FTA with the kingdom”, 

he noted. “As 

Pakistan is a traditional trade 

partner of the UK and we 

want to enhance our exports 

by striking a comprehensive 

trade deal; Jawad remarked. 

Pakistan grants tax 

neutrality for sukuk deals 

SPV, for tax on rental 

income earned by a SPV, 

and for various withholding 

taxes linked to the transfer 

of underlying assets in 

sukuk transactions. 

The SECP published 

rules for issuance of sukuk 

in February 2015 after a 

three-year consultation, but 

most sukuk issuance 

remains confined to the federal 

government. Pakistan’s 

central bank has expanded 

its own issuance of local currency 

sukuk to provide a 

much-needed tool for the 

fast-growing Islamic banking 

sector.

Non payments of tax refunds 

halts economic growth: PEW 


Pakistan Economy Watch 

(PEW) has observed that nonpayment

Mughal said that stuck up 

refunds worth billions of 

rupees have inflicted harm 

upon exporter sector which

Hit by 300 pellets, Parimpora 

youth’s vital organs damaged in IOK 

SRINAGAR, Sep 4: In 

occupied Kashmir, in Ward 

No 20 at SMHS hospital, a 

young girl sat in a corner, 

tears streaming down her 

cheeks. “They have taken 

my brother again for some 

medical investigations. 

Nobody is telling us anything 

about his condition,” 

said Aisha while wiping her 

tears, as attendants in the 

ward huddle around to console 

her. 

Moments later, 20-yearold 

Musaib Ahmad, writhing 

in pain, is shifted back to the 

ward on a stretcher. “Please 

help me! This pain is 

unbearable,” said Ahmad, a 

class 12th student. This was 

for the third time since 

Thursday afternoon when 

Ahmad, admitted to hospital 

with severe pellet injuries, 

that he had been taken for 

the CT Scan. “Look what 

they have done to him,” said 

Aisha.His entire body is pitted 

with the pellet shots and 

drops of blood are still oozing 

out from his injuries on 

various body parts. His limb 

too is broken with pellets. 

Doctors said Ahmad has 

pellet injury in his kidney 

causing Hematuria, a condition 

where blood leaks into 

urine, Kashmir Media 

Service (KMS) reported. 

Besides, the doctors said 

“some pellets” have also 

gone inside the chest of the 

youth, resulting in hemothorax, 

a condition where blood 

fills the chest cavity resulting 

in shrinking of lungs. 

“More than 300 pellets have 

hit his back, limbs besides 

vital organs have been damaged,” 

doctors treating him 

said. 

As a doctor was examining 

Ahmad, his elder sister 

rushed into the Ward, crying: 

“There are no whereabouts 

of mother since 

their miseries, he added. 

He said that FBR should 

not hamper the growth of the 

most productive sectors by 

denying the exporters and 

manufacturers their right of 

refund of sales tax and 

income tax.. Delay in release 

of huge funds that runs into 

billions has triggered serious 

liquidity crunch for the 

exporters and manufacturers 

that might lead to closure of 

several industrial units which 

will have very damaging consequences, 

he warned.
