"TRUTH" Behind My Silence !

" Bol kay Lab azad hain Terey "
My silence should not be looked upon as my weakness ! My truth should be judged by my viewers and many of those who have eagerly waited to hear the "The truth "that lead to my resignation from Samaa after 4 years. Long hard four years of work , when I think back it seems like a  journey of a life time. 
My father always said " Don't speak too much truth its not worth it" in this male dominated society. I always laughed and in my 15 years of journalistic career it seems he was right. He passed away two years ago fearing everyday for my life. The city I love the most was burning everyday , and everyday someone I did not know died in target killing.
So I became  the voice of  the people but now I am unheard .I tried protecting the rights of the Pakistanis but now my rights are being violated . I fearlessly talked about the better future of my fellow citizens but my future has been compromised. I talked against  the ruthless target killing in Karachi but now I am on the hit list of target killers”
World can be difficult life unpredictable but be a woman and to be an anchor and journalist life is threateningly violent in Pakistan and specially in Karachi.

I am in self imposed exile due to serious threats from unknown target killers.The security agencies have asked me to do so. How strange I cant move freely in my own Home land ! Why ? When will this mayhem stop ? how do I celebrate the independence day ? Are we independent ? These questions haunt me everyday.

 “I have spent 15 years a journalist and have been doing current affairs shows on private news TV channels of Pakistan but this is the first time , according to law enforcement agencies, I and my family are under serious life threats” Hunt and target a woman." Not only will this make international headlines but will also tell the world that we are hostage to handful of terrorists these terrorists  control our destinies. .
“ This actually started on 11th May 2013 when Pakistan was witnessing General Elections 2013 and voting for  political transaction from one democratic government to another was taking place. As a journalist and host of news channel, I was covering voting process around Pakistan via special election transmission. On that day, I witnessed that, huge numbers of people came out to cast their votes which was not seen in the past. I was jubilant excited and praying "God let there be a change let the Pakistanis decide for a new beginning ".
My excitement  turned into my nightmare.   I decided to cast  my vote along with my old mother and my brother. I went to my polling constituency called NA 250 (DHA girls college polling station) and there I saw crowds of people huge numbers hundreds of excited women , youngsters , girls and boys. Now it was around 2 o clock  in the afternoon the  polling had started very late in fact the ballot boxes were brought by the candidate himself in custody of rangers. I started talking to the people they were tired and hot and by now getting impatient as the line was huge but the voting was very slow.  As a journalist, I entered the polling station forcibly to know why polling was so delayed  and slow? As I went inside I saw total ciaos. There was hardly any staff  and people were pushing and shoving puzzled what to do.I started surveying the rooms polling was going on in a few rooms  but at a snail's pace and the staff was scared. I asked them why was there so much less staff  and why were they taking so much time ?They said dont ask us ,ask the presiding officer who was no where to be seen. I saw one room which was locked from inside, I tried opening it because my instinct said something was wrong as I pushed the crowd pushed with me and we manged to get inside and there I witnessed that polling officer  hostage and a few young men stamping fake votes for a political party, Mutahida Qaumi Moment (MQM). I questioned them about rigging but they misbehaved with me and started to run away . By this time many voters had entered behind me and there started a fight I tried stopping them yelling that  I am a journalist but the fight got worse and the boys stamping the ballots ran pushing and ripping my shirt and in this total madness my old mother fell. I barely managed to get out and tried yelling for help from the two rangers standing on guard but no one came to help. They just looked the other way and went out . A few men helped me my mother and a few other women get out .Meanwhile, I asked my channel Samaa to take my audio beeper for  that breaking news and in that beeper I said whatever I saw at the polling station in detail. I asked for the Sindh election commissioner to intervene and thus began the full fledged words of war between two political parties MQM and PTI which led to protests all around Karachi by night.

 “On the same evening, I went to my news channel to do my live election transmission and tried to invite politicians from MQM to discuss the events of the day but my office management stopped me. I was told due to my audio beeper they (MQM) Mutahida Qaumi Movement were very angry. I was asked again and again not to raise this issue from my management and to divert the elections transmission show to the other parts of Pakistan . During my program transmission I was very upset for not being able to speak the truth . The story that really mattered to me now was NA 250. Later that night  Mr. Altaf Hussain, the founder and chairman of Mutahida Qaumi Moment (MQM) made very incited telephonic speeches from London in which he talked about killing people and abused the journalists and anchors calling them barking dogs. By now the entire media of Pakistan had focused on Karachi.

The next few days I did  shows on Mr. Altaf Hussain"s incited speeches,despite my channel's go soft policy on MQM . I invited politicians from both the political parties. Heated debates took place and Mr. Altaf Hussain;s speeches were highly criticized by everyone in Pakistan and abroad.

After my last show of the week  Governor Sindh, Mr. Ishrat Ul Ibad and senior leaders of MQM spoke gently with me about those shows . The same night  Mr. Altaf Hussain apologized for the comments he had made about journalists and anchors.  I liked that gesture and appreciated it publicly. Then I left  to Saudi Arabia for three days to offer Umrah (The Muslims religious obligation to go to Saudi Arabia and perform prayer) when I came back, the world became different for me” .

“When I came back, I saw huge deployment of the Police and Rangers outside my home, I was shocked the first thought was Oh God  robbery I rushed inside and met a scared housekeeper. Thank God no robbery what then ? As soon as I opened my cell phone the first call I received was by SP of my area. He said only one sentence " Madam where were you Allah has saved you and your family please don't leave your house I am on my way. " The Police and intelligence agencies men came to my house shortly.  I was told by them that, "they intercepted telephone calls detailing that  four target killers had been assigned to target me or my family and made to look like robbery at gun point." This was shocking I just couldn't believe it . According to the intelligence reports the target killers had completed their home work to kill me or any member of my family. In official terms their Rekee was complete. The senior officials told me this was no joke but a clear present and serious threat to my life. They said if you were here, you would have been killed by now. I asked them who wants me dead what have I done ? According to all the intelligence agencies reports including CID, IB Intelligent Bureau, ISI Inter services Intelligence all terrorists belonged to the largest  ethnic  political party of Karachi Mutahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) these reports were sent to the Government of Pakistan on all levels. Before this incident, I have never received any direct threat from MQM  let me clear this and put it on record. Every thing I have written is exactly what has been told to me by the Intelligence agencies of Pakistan.

My immediate response was to do two things I sent my brother back to Canada the same night I never felt so relieved before in my life as I saw his aircraft fly into the air. And the second thing I did was move my old mother to an undisclosed location in Pakistan.  And then I cried and I cried so much I did not know whether it was pain or tears of relief that my family was safe.“
The next day I went to work moving under heavy security.I immediately tried to contact Mr. Altaf Hussain to tell him what the agencies were telling me, but London office of MQM didn’t respond, though in past Mr. Altaf Hussain use to be in touch with me very often”. Finally I got through to Mr. Nusrat Nadeem member Rabitta committee London I told him everything he listened to me patiently and denied everything. He sent Mr. Wasaay Jalil and Mr.Saif Abbas senior members  of MQM to my house to reassure me that nothing of the above was the truth and that the agencies were lying . I was unsure who to believe ? My saviors had become my enemies ! Were the agencies pitting me against MQM to play their proxy wars ? Or was this whole thing the truth ? By now my mother was pushing me to resign .
“I requested help from my news channel (Samaa TV), from the government and from law enforcement agencies but no one was ready to seriously resolve this issue I was told to move in a bullet proof car ! To keep a low profile or rather better move from Karachi . How can I a journalist move in a bullet proof car ? Where would I get a car like that from ? But no one was there to help me. What  did I do which compelled any  political party to send target killers for me? I was doing my job honestly.
 “I was invited by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in energy conference and there without taking the name of any political party, I informed Mr. Nawaz Sharif about the potential threats of target killing at me and my family and that was the triggering point for me and I broke down and sobbed for Karachi. The entire Media was sitting there  but the PM had nothing to say he only expressed sorrow at my dilemma . Besides that, I met and informed Interior Federal Minister, Choudhary Nisar and Director General, Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) but my all efforts went into vein” I still seek the truth ? I resigned that day from Samaa as I was dumb founded at their indifference to this whole situation they did not even have a word of sympathy let alone provide any security or help resolve this matter for me.

 “I would never leave my homeland and I would never leave my profession, no matter if gangs kill me. Furthermore, I will write a book regarding my experiences as a female Journalist which will truly reveal the  real persona of political entities and true colors of the  establishment of Pakistan.I am not leaving my country and profession, I lived as a journalist and will die as a journalist. I may not live but my writings will surely live and will keep enlightening people”
 “According to UNESCO, After Mexico, Pakistan is second dangerous place for Journalists. Previously, institutions used to threaten Journalists but now political parties and different gangs are involved in the killings and harassing journalists”
I salute the journalists and anchors who raised their voice for me. And above all I salute the people of Pakistan and my viewers who have been a beacon of hope in these testing times for me and my team members  Ahmed Khan ,  Aijaz Khoker and Zeeshan  of  the program "Tonight with Jasmeen "who have all resigned with me.
I am still seeking the truth.

According to committee for protecting Journalists, 52 journalists have been killed since 1992 in Pakistan http://www.cpj.org/killed/asia/pakistan/.  and in 2012, seven journalists gave their lives during performing their Job http://www.cpj.org/killed/2012/. Journalists of Karachi hopes that, the list of deceased journalists would not increase in future.

    6. MQMpakistani.Org has answered this allegation upon MQM. You could visit the answer at:

      https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=570939569613785&set=a.286563288051416.61313.128042927236787&type=1&theater

      جسمیں لکھتی ہیں کہ:
      "میں ریکارڈ پر یہ کہہ رہی ہوں کہ پچھلے 15 سال کے جرنلزم میں متحدہ کی طرف سے ایک بھی دھمکی مجھے نہیں ملی"۔
      اور جو کچھ جسمین نے بیان کیا ہے، اسکے مطابق الیکشن کے بعد آج کے دن تک انہیں ایم کیو ایم کی طرف سے کوئی دھمکی نہیں ملی، اور اس دھمکی کے واحد اور اکلوتے گواہ ایس پی پولیس صاحب ہیں۔
      بلکہ آج تک دھمکی دینا تو ایک طرف رہا، متحدہ کے لیڈران واسع جلیل صاحب اور سیف عباس صاحب جیسمین کی درخواست پر خود جسمین کے گھر گئے، اور اسے یقین دلایا ہے کہ متحدہ ہرگز ایسے کسی مسئلے میں ملوث نہیں اور وہ جسمین کا تحفظ چاہتے ہیں۔ صورتحال یہ ہے:
      1) متحدہ کے خلاف کوئی ایک بھی ثبوت نہیں۔
      2) ایس پی پولیس صاحب واحد گواہ ہیں جنکا دعوی ہے کہ انہوں نے ٹیلیفون گفتگو ریکارڈ کی ہے جس میں متحدہ کے 4 کارکن ریکی کر کے جسمین کو قتل کرنے کا پلان مکمل کر چکے تھے۔
      3) مگر ایس پی پولیس صاحب نے یہ "ریکارڈنگ" نہ تو جسمین کو سنوائی ہے، اور نہ ہی عدالت میں پیش کی ہے۔
      4) ان 4 ریکی کرنے والے کارکنان کو گرفتار کرنا تو ایک طرف رہا، ان کا تو ابھی تک نام تک نہیں بتلایا گیا ہے۔ نہ جسمین کو انکے نام پتا ہیں، نہ عدالت کو، نہ میڈیا کو، اور نہ ہی متحدہ کو۔
      5) "ثبوت" پیش کرنے کی ذمہ داری مکمل طور پر "الزام" لگانے والے پر ہوتی ہے۔ مگر ادھر ثبوت تو مکمل طور پر "ندارد" ہے۔ الٹا اگر ایسا ہوا ہے تو ایس پی کو پکڑ کر جیل میں بند کر دینا چاہیے کہ اس نے ابتک اس "اقدام قتل" پر ایکشن کیوں نہیں لیا؟
      6) اس پولیس ایس پی صاحب کی طرح کا ایک جھوٹا الزام برگیڈیئر آصف ہارون نے بھی جناح پور کے حوالے سے لگایا تھا۔ اُسوقت بھی ثبوت "ندارد" تھا، مگر پھر بھی ہماری قوم آمنا صدقنا کہتے ہوئے فقط ایک اس برگیڈیئر آصف ہارون کی جھوٹی گواہی پر ایمان لے آئی تھی، اور ہماری لاکھوں گواہیوں کو ٹھکرا دیا تھا۔
      نتیجہ یہ ہے کہ جسمین کیس میں بھی ہمارے اہل وطن میں سے کسی نے اس ایس پی صاحب سے ثبوت طلب نہیں کیا ہے اور انصاف کا قتل کرتے ہوئے متحدہ کو انہوں نے ملزم سے پہلے ہی مجرم بنا کر تختہ دار پر لٹکا دیا ہے۔ ۔۔ بالکل جناح پور کے جھوٹے کیس کی طرح۔

    7. Not sorry for you because you already get your price and now involving MQM is a fashion for everyone.
      If you are true and neutral host then expose your own account and assets detail to the people not to the media. We know how much money you Anchors are making and this is the only true.

    10. Jasmeen you have always been an inspiration to me because 'you tell like it is'. The cowards who have threatened you will be behind bars Inshallah, already Altaf is under house arrest. His thugs will be answerable in this world and the next. Their tyranny will have to end. You did your job, please stay safe and return another day when you can report on 'how the MQM ended'. God Bless you my prayers are with you and your family.

    11. MQM's statement is typical, they never accept any blame, nothing can be proven in courts because they not only kill witnesses but lawyers and judges too.

      They cleared their name from "Jinnah Pur scandal" on whose statement? Brig Imtiaz, one of the cheapest and characterless person known in Pakistan.
      Brig Imtiaz is now the most truthful person for MQM, what a joke.

      All the SHO's of Gen Babar's operation against MQM in 1991 are now killed, how? Who killed them ? Unknown Hands?

      Keep an eye on that SSP now, and let see when he will be killed too, in some "encounter" or by some unknown sniper (who will fail to leave his MQM membership card on the scene). Well no body does !

      Jasmeen stay away for a bit and wait for Dr Imran Farooq's murder case to take some shape, MQM are just a bunch of hyenas, they will also disappear with him(Inshallah).

      Didn't you noticed that Altaf is now that vocal these days?

      Corruption is the key to all the mess we have in our home land.
      But one advice, be clever and play smart. go out of country for few months if you have to. Its not end of the world if you come back after this all calms down. Come back and continue what you are doing....

    16. Totally Fake Story,

      1)When someone return to homeland, they 1st switch on there phone, but inspite of this Jasmine switch on her when he reached to her home.

      2)Why all agencies waiting of Jasmine at her home, when agencies knew that she was in danger so why they didn't cover her from Airport.

      3) If someone really want to kill her why they didn't kill her on way b/w Airport to home.

      4) The planners/terrorist doesn't know that she was out of Pakistan. What the foolish planners.

      Its really look like a story of Pakistani films.

      Jasmine please join Lollywood, they really need a writer like you.

      Jasmine you use a word here "male dominated society" Miss, Jasmine whats yours comments about your program in which you support the world's biggest layer Ms. Veena Malik against M. Asif.

  9. You were and still are one of the very few honest journalists in our country. Most of the media is bought by different political parties and it is so evident by their broadcast. Yes, you have stood for the truth and Allah will help you. Writing the book is a great idea. Your knowledge and experience as a journalist should be shared with all and lessons should be learnt of it. Your show will always be missed but your blogs could fill the gap to some extent.

I do not know how we call us Muslim proudly . there is no respect for women in our society and even for such people who speaks the truth. This fact can not be deny by any citizen of our mother land that the sitation of Pakistan is going worse day by day. we need people like you now. lets hope for the best and yeah i will pray for your long life.

  13. Dearest Jasmeen,

    The day I heard you resigned I knew the reason, do not suspect on intelligence reports they were right and they are right... I know you are a brave women but you need to take care of your self at least for the sake of your old mother.... believe me whatever u just did is exactly what Imran Khan was talking about "CHANGE" whatever we saw in Karachi PTI Protesting is what we call "CHANGE" never seen people speaking truth about MQM.... YOU REALLY ARE A BRAVE WOMEN MA SHA ALLAH.

    We all witnessed what happened in elections everyone knows the whole entire story but Jasmeen, when they don't care so why do you? MQM is a criminal organization... DON'T WORRY THEY WILL DIE THEY WILL BE QUESTIONED... I know how careful anchors are discussing MQM specifically. I know what MQM does to the people.... specially those who doesn't sound their way...!! I wish you all the best ahead and please stay safe.. May Allah Protect You & Your Entire Family In Shaa Allah.

    I am praying for the day when a "MAN" becomes what General Kiyani is and smash the political system for good! then everyone will become just like you and me... then we will see who will feed these target killers.... then we will see who will stamp forcefully on ballet papers...!! LONG LIVE PAKISTAN...!!

    I hope your words reach everyone!!!!!

    TAKE CARE!

Dear jasmine first of all I would pray to my Allah that you stay protected and safe, path of truth that you have chosen is very difficult may ALLAH pak help you along, don't seek help from the sold politicians, or secret agencies of Pakistan they themselves seem helpless like being held hostage by the killer MQM, and they are shamelessly idiots they have even forgotten that they would die someday and would be held answerable for their deeds you should ask ALLAH PAK to help you and protect you the only true saviour and protector of us only he will bring them to justice.

  18. Quite a dramatic film-like series of events. My observations:
    If MQM were after you then why did they wait for your coming back? They could have 'robbed' you anywhere you move even before your going to Umrah? Since the "Rekee" has already taken place then why would they leave their target?
    Why not intelligence agencies came to know that you had gone abroad? Are such agencies worth trusting?
    Why did you open your cell phone after reaching home? Generally, people open their cell phones while they are on board the plane?
    The most dramatized act was: the first phone you received was of SP? Come on, quite a scripted series of events?
    Your watching an episode of rigging at one polling station threatened the MQM?

    The fact is: even when you stated your story, you still managed to keep the balance and with all 'honesty' you have not blamed anybody and again left up to the people's judgment whom to blame - MQM or Agencies?

    Yes, there was a mishap took place with you and I am sure your being one of the most vocals for CJP, you should have filed a petition in the SC? Taking this long time for this story created more hype than expected.

    Still, best wishes for you and may God help you.

    3. Even MQM supporters know the activities of this terrorist organization. The fact that they are still supporting it means they are a gone case, no need to reason with them. They only understand the language of violence and threats which we cannot speak. We can only pray to Allah to give hidayat to them.

  22. Very sorry for that. No body can smash MQM other than people of Pakistan and Karachi themselves. MQM is near to collapse and might be divided into many groups after Altaf Hussain.

  25. In your entire career, you are very much aware about the activities of MQM but you did not find the courage to speak against them. Yet, I am astonished how you and Mr. Luqman become courageous to speak against them. I seriously doubt your intentions and the intention of every journalist of Pakistan, who despite being aware about the situation of the city and the cause of it remain ignorant! Though, I am truly disappointed that your family come under life-threat but this is all because of your support to the party against whom you are writing and again with caution.

    1. Dear Sister
      I appreciate your valued contributions to the journalism and Pakistan. but be careful, I am also a victim of suck events and Landlord and Mafia Dominated society. only one thing is clear, it is not a male dominated society. Actually, very few of our ladies are willing to think independently, as most of them remain busy in either households or shopping. What happened to Babar of Geo, it is all about Mafia and Wealth and Power hungry politicians to get positions. You say the lady (Ms Zahra) from PTI killed in Khi how many others are being killed everyday. I suggest you to write the book but save your back first rather go to Canada for some time and expect the change to happen.
      May Allah bless you and Pakistan....Aameen

  39. I've nothing to say about the target killers that threatened you but only one word for the coward nawaz sharif, he's a 'EUNUCH'. a political eunuch who only needs power by hook or by crook. He's a planted prime minister like zardari and they, including altaf hussain, are the filthy pieces placed by the pentagon on the chessboard of international manipulated politics. You know it well, everybody knows it well. That's why the EUNUCH nawaz sharif didn't respond to assure you of a stern action against MQM because he needed their votes in the presidential elections and also he could not annoy his bosses in london and washington. That's the truth.

    But, one thing is for sure, they EUNUCHS will have to atone for what they are doing with this country and with Pakistanis.

    I always preferred to watch your programmes and appreciated your bold and blunt stance on national issues.

    Now, you have another opportunity to keep connected with your fans through Facebook and this blog. I suggest please keep sharing your views and experiences through this blog. Of course, you cannot reach millions like through Samaa but there are thousands who would love to read you through this blog.

    So, please compose yourself, gather your energies and be consistent in updating this blog at least three or four times a week. With your experience you can post at least one article daily. You can do it Jasmeen. Please don't keep your fans deprived of your bold and blunt words.

    Best of luck

  44. salam,being a woman i have no words for ur courage and bravery coz i would have not been able to withstand even half of it what u have gone through,so all the best and may ALLAH protect u.
    having said that i would like to narrate my ordeal too on 11th may,our polling station was NA253 INCOME TAX BUILDING in Gulistanejohar,i cant express my feelings of that day when i saw thousands of ppl standing in queue so many cars and my what enthusiasm i have witnessed!alas,the joy was not for long as the ppl deployed there were extremely incompetent,the polling was slow or rather being made slow to discourage women like me with children and old ppl not to cast thier vote,i saw MR SHAHOOD ALVI an actor trying to make his aged parents cast thier vote and was directed upstairs and downstairs aimlessly,i came back to my house dropped my mother in law and daughter and headed back to pstation as i was determined to!women were stuffed on 4th floor,utter mismanagement was obvious,guys or may i call them goons were present in women polling booth with no id cards that make their presence suspicious,the booth was filled with sacs of biryanai thelas and the rigid lady presiding officers were denying our right to vote privately,two goons and two lady presiding officers asked everyone to stamp publicly and make sure its on kite!! v didnt do that but all our ballot papers were folded differently then the one with kite stamp on it.
    i called metro tv and geo tv from the polling station and asked then to help us both of them said they cant do anything,the men from BNN of Geo tv came there and all the girls started clapping as v thought they will stop all the nonsense going on but they just saw a glimpse of our suffocated polling booth and vanished, pathetic men!!
    i and all the other women present there made this pledge that we will never vote for MQM again,winning and losing is part of game but such cheap tactics have made MQM to reach new lows of disgrace.

    1. There are some buildings in Gulistan-e-Jauhar which were locked from outside by MQM goons on election day to keep the voters from coming out to vote. This shows the paranoia in MQM, they are certain nobody in the whole damn building would vote for them so they didn't allow voting to happen altogether. The party has lost its support it once had. Now maybe only guthka walas support them, maybe only a few of them too.

  54. Why would the agencies tell you a lie. There must be credible intelligence report of danger to your life.
    Do you really expect Altaf Hussain or his RC thugs to admit they are after your blood. You touched at their raw nerve by witnessing Thappa Mafia in action on the polling day in NA 250. Shame on the Election Commission and Fakhru Bhai who were witnessing the illegal activity going on in that polling station and no action was taken.

    I was shocked to know a lukewarm response of the Prime Minister to your complaints. What one could say when the PM is speechless due to terror from the thugs of Karachi.

    It is a sad saga but you have exposed them and they should not keep telling about the 'mandate' they have. The demography has changed and these thugs can not claim mandate anymore once so many seats taken by them with strong arm tactics are taken away from them.

My Dear Jasmeen Manzoor the key to the whole episode is in one sentence "..... in fact the ballot boxes were brought by the candidate himself in custody of rangers." which not only explains every thing but questions your wisdom of not following the main lead which could have led you to the actual writer,director and producer of this drama including a bigger game played with the people of Pakistan. If you are brave enough you should now follow this in its entirety from NA250 to ISI,GHQ and their newly recruited rulers PTI,PMLN etc????????????????

MQM, Establishment Media-Malkaan and a number of politicians are Munafiq at a high extreme. However, Taking your piece of writing as your statement can I move forward to file a Public Interest litigation (PIL), I am a human rights activist and not a lawyer but with the help of some lawyer friends, I want to file a PIL against State, and MQM to know the facts that what were the reasons who pulled/pushed to renowned journalist to leave the country. Let see what happen and what comes out. If you agree.

  68. Well... I'm feeling really sorry to read this... A brave lady, a brave journalist like you is facing such distrusting conditions in Karachi, well to be honest I was really hopeful that PML(N) government will take serious actions against Terrorists or I must say PUNKS of Karachi or according to Anne W. Patterson "The Group of Thugs". This group of thugs will face their worst nightmare soon INSHAALLAH, then I'm sure there will be no SOLD OUT General (R) to prove them innocent.

    Anyways ma'am, We love you, we respect you and your braveness, and we pray for you and your family.

    Your story sounds like story of 1.6 million residents of Karachi, we all are facing the same threats here, but the difference is that you got the platform to raise your voice. But what about the general public of Karachi?

    My best wishes and prayers are with you, Everything will be fine soon, ALLAH has always created a Moosa for every Firoun, so I'm sure the Firouns of Karachi will soon be under tons of Dust INSHAALLAH.

    I hope you'll never through your pen away, Media can stifle your voice, but cannot stop you from writing. And I'm sure that your services of 15 years can't be waste..

    We all are with you, we want to read your articles even if we can't hear you... so don't let you pen's ink dry, people like you are the last hope of Karachiites...

  77. I feel very sorry that people like Jasmine are leaving the country. I sometime think what image we are portraying on the rest of the world. Little groups of gangsters are so powerful than our law enforcement agencies. I am very hopeful that Jasmine will find the way to continue her JOB... To speak the truth against every burning issue...

  78. I will advise all anchor persons of Pakistani News Channels to unite and form an organization which will give them strength to fight hardships, issues, challenges and threats they face from political parties, target killers, establishment and media owners. If they wish to survive and speak truth they will have to form representative organization within no time. I express my sympathies and prayers for the whole team because I was the part of family they were part..

  82. first of all i feel sorry for all the hardships you and your family went through and i salute you bravery. i too, like many of my countrymen suggest that you keep doing your work, its hard and difficult but it will make a difference casue you have a huge following. also use your pen to educate people to stand against those who want to burn pakistan, especially karachi. also want to suggest that if you think there is a political party that really want peace and security in karachi, quit journalism and join them and become the protecter.. we shall support you.. in the end a dua ( prayer )for you, may ALLAH the almighty keep you safe and give you strength to fight for those who can´t fight for themselves. ameen.

Here, I must say that Pakistan is going on from a very difficult period. We need change. I have read your story and to be very honest I must say that please do stand with Pakistan and never betray your beloved country. Though Its in wrong hands but Inshallah we will change Pakistan. Indians, Zionists etc. they are destabilizing our beloved country as Zaid Hamid is crying but no one hear Him. One day all the politicians and other enemies of Pakistan will realize the Truth. Inshallah. Pakistan Zindabad.

  87. Hi Jasmeen, Feeling very sad for you. But do not doubt on Intelligence reports. MQM even denied when BBC reported on them. Believe in, what Agencies said. Don't believe in MQM's bastards. They are the real enemies of Pakistan.

  88. Just to tell you one thing, Allah k haan der hy but andher nhi, We will soon see you back again. Remember one thing they can stop one voice or two or hundred but when this nation will come to know that how we can stop them by getting united nothing these few killers can do for us. I am using "us" because never think you are alone. Believe me every one is with you. The only thing we have to do is to take decision to get rid of these stupid people.

    Let the agencies and government to realize that MQM is nothing, they don't need to be afraid of them.

    We are with you and let MQM or any other killer know this that now they can not stop the voice.

    Second really surprised & shocked what really & actually happened with you and above all entire our agencies & law enforcement people knew the people behind this brutalism but still all of us are helpless & behaving deaf & dumb while seeing our brothers & sisters killed by these groups & gangs. May Allah also give us all courage to speak truth and stop these brutality so we can stop brain drainage of people like you outside of Pakistan.

  102. MQMpakistani.Org has answered this allegation upon MQM. You could visit the answer at:

    https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=570939569613785&set=a.286563288051416.61313.128042927236787&type=1&theater

    جسمیں لکھتی ہیں کہ:
    "میں ریکارڈ پر یہ کہہ رہی ہوں کہ پچھلے 15 سال کے جرنلزم میں متحدہ کی طرف سے ایک بھی دھمکی مجھے نہیں ملی"۔
    اور جو کچھ جسمین نے بیان کیا ہے، اسکے مطابق الیکشن کے بعد آج کے دن تک انہیں ایم کیو ایم کی طرف سے کوئی دھمکی نہیں ملی، اور اس دھمکی کے واحد اور اکلوتے گواہ ایس پی پولیس صاحب ہیں۔
    بلکہ آج تک دھمکی دینا تو ایک طرف رہا، متحدہ کے لیڈران واسع جلیل صاحب اور سیف عباس صاحب جیسمین کی درخواست پر خود جسمین کے گھر گئے، اور اسے یقین دلایا ہے کہ متحدہ ہرگز ایسے کسی مسئلے میں ملوث نہیں اور وہ جسمین کا تحفظ چاہتے ہیں۔ صورتحال یہ ہے:
    1) متحدہ کے خلاف کوئی ایک بھی ثبوت نہیں۔
    2) ایس پی پولیس صاحب واحد گواہ ہیں جنکا دعوی ہے کہ انہوں نے ٹیلیفون گفتگو ریکارڈ کی ہے جس میں متحدہ کے 4 کارکن ریکی کر کے جسمین کو قتل کرنے کا پلان مکمل کر چکے تھے۔
    3) مگر ایس پی پولیس صاحب نے یہ "ریکارڈنگ" نہ تو جسمین کو سنوائی ہے، اور نہ ہی عدالت میں پیش کی ہے۔
    4) ان 4 ریکی کرنے والے کارکنان کو گرفتار کرنا تو ایک طرف رہا، ان کا تو ابھی تک نام تک نہیں بتلایا گیا ہے۔ نہ جسمین کو انکے نام پتا ہیں، نہ عدالت کو، نہ میڈیا کو، اور نہ ہی متحدہ کو۔
    5) "ثبوت" پیش کرنے کی ذمہ داری مکمل طور پر "الزام" لگانے والے پر ہوتی ہے۔ مگر ادھر ثبوت تو مکمل طور پر "ندارد" ہے۔ الٹا اگر ایسا ہوا ہے تو ایس پی کو پکڑ کر جیل میں بند کر دینا چاہیے کہ اس نے ابتک اس "اقدام قتل" پر ایکشن کیوں نہیں لیا؟
    6) اس پولیس ایس پی صاحب کی طرح کا ایک جھوٹا الزام برگیڈیئر آصف ہارون نے بھی جناح پور کے حوالے سے لگایا تھا۔ اُسوقت بھی ثبوت "ندارد" تھا، مگر پھر بھی ہماری قوم آمنا صدقنا کہتے ہوئے فقط ایک اس برگیڈیئر آصف ہارون کی جھوٹی گواہی پر ایمان لے آئی تھی، اور ہماری لاکھوں گواہیوں کو ٹھکرا دیا تھا۔
    نتیجہ یہ ہے کہ جسمین کیس میں بھی ہمارے اہل وطن میں سے کسی نے اس ایس پی صاحب سے ثبوت طلب نہیں کیا ہے اور انصاف کا قتل کرتے ہوئے متحدہ کو انہوں نے ملزم سے پہلے ہی مجرم بنا کر تختہ دار پر لٹکا دیا ہے۔ ۔۔ بالکل جناح پور کے جھوٹے کیس کی طرح۔

    3. Media like a prostitute pay money and play.
    4. I Remember you were the first Anchor who disclosed the LAL MASJID from inside and on-air the video "women with weapons" and you told that time "YE KIA HO RAHA HA ISLAMABAD MAY|" terrorist in Islamabad., after govt toook notice and attack after your program and finished that place from terrorist declare by you then you start barking against Musharraf WAH WAH. in my point of view you are the real killer of that all incident.
    5. the big reason behind your fake philosophy you are Pashto speaking and supporting your pashtoon bhai IMRAN.
    6. how u can blame on MQM that 250 constituency rigging done by MQM it isnt sound like a joke MQM done rigging and lost the seat . Bull shit on your todays as well as previous blogs and program.

  110. I also condemn the diffidence of a number of these so called journalists who spend all day castigating politcal leaders,the bureaucracy and people belonging to the realm of journalism but they cant show the guts to speak the truth about MQM.Kudos to Jasmeen for exposing MQM'S heinous activities in Sindh.This isnt a fallacy.This party has incessantly tried to polarize Karachi through ethnic politics.MQM cant win half the seats in Karachi if the people are allowed to vote without fear of dying.I also extoll thousands of Karachiites who risked their lives and came out to protest against MQM's killers and the ruffians who massively rigged the May 11th election in Karachi.If the people and the govt dont take decisive steps,we can be certain that Jasmeen wont be the last journalist to be threatened by this terrorist group.She obviously isnt the first.We know who killed people like Hakeem Saeed and Maj Kaleem and we know which party introduced the horrifying trend in Karachi and Hyderabad of killing people and shoving them in bodybags.

  113. جیسمین منظور کے اس طویل بیان کا اگر باریک بینی کے ساتھ اور غیر متعصبانہ بجزیہ کیا جائے تو واضح طور پر یہ نظر آتا ہے کہ یہ تمام کہانی ایم کیو ایم کے خلاف مسلسل ہونے والی سازشوں میں سے ایک سازش ہے۔ جیسمین کے بیان میں جو انتہائی قابل غور بات ہے وہ یہ کہ وہ تواتر کے ساتھ یہ بات کہتی رہی ہیں کہ انہوں نے بار بار حکومت سے، قانون نافذ کرنے والے اداروں سے اور حتی کہ آئی ایس آئی کے ڈائریکٹر جنرل سے مدد مانگی مگر وہاں خاموشی رہی ۔ یہاں تک کہ جب وہ وزیر اعظم سے ملیں تو انہوں نے بھی انکی بات سن کر خاموشی اختیار کی ۔ ان کا چینل بھی انکی مدد کو نہیں آیا اور چند ساتھیوں کے علاوہ کسی نے بھی ان کا ساتھ نہیں دیا ۔
    ایک ایسے وقت میں حب ایم کیو ایم کئی سمتوں سے دباؤ کا شکار ہے اور اس کا فائدہ اٹھاتے ہوئے کئی ٹی وی اینکرز ایم کیو ایم کے خلاف انتہائی شدید مخالفانہ پراپیگنڈہ کررہے ہیں، اس پر نہ صرف الزامات لگا رہے ہیں بلکہ بعض تو الطاف حسین کے خلاف بھی نہ جانے کس قدر بے ہودہ الفاظ استعمال کررہے ہیں تو انہیں ابھی تک کسی طرح کی کوئی دھمکی نہیں ملی؟ یہ بات سمجھ میں نہ آنے والی ہے۔ تو اس بات سے نتیجہ یہ نکلتا ہے کہ جیسمین کے ساتھ پیش آنے والے واقعات ایک گہری سازش کا پتہ دے رہے ہیں اور ہر سطح کے بداروں کا جیسمین کغ شکایات پر خاموش ہوجانا اس بات کا واضح ثبوت ہے کہ یہ سازش ان اداروں کی طرف سے ہی کی جا رہی ہے ۔ ورنہ تو حقیقت کی نظر سے دیکھا جائے تو یہ ایم کیو ایم کے خلاف کسی بھی انتقامی کارروائی کیلئے بہترین وقت تھا ۔ اس سے یہ بات ثابت ہوتی ہے کہ پولنگ اسٹیشن کے واقعے سے لیکر بعد کے واقعات تک جو کچھ بھی ہوتا رہا وہ تمام کا تمام ایجنسیوں کی ہی کارروائی تھی اور یہی وجہ ہے کہ جیسمین کو ہیں سے سے بھی مدد نہ ملی کیونکہ انہیں ایک سازش میں پھنسا کر اب چلے ہوئے کارتوس کی طرح پھینک دیا گیا ہے . وزیر اعظم سے لیکر آئی ایس آئی کے ڈائریکٹر جنرل تک سب کی پر اسرار خاموشی اور ٹی وی چینل کا انکی ودد سے کترانااس بات کی گواہی ہے کہ یہ سارا گندا گھیل ایم کیو ایم کو ایک بڑی سازش میں پھنسانے کا ہے اور جیسمین منظور اس کھیل میں ایک مہرے کی طرح استعمال ہوچکی ہیں ۔ خدا ان پر اور ہم سب پر رحم فرمائے ۔

  117. You are one of those lucky people who have the power to write about their right, about their grievances, about their threats, their insecurity. I don't know what is the difference of being woman journalist and male journalist.
    You are saying absolutely right and most of Pakistanis particularly people in Karachi are suffering from this. But I don't understand your words of getting sad about male dominating society. What if you are not in this society? Agencies would have taken you away before threatening you. The whole world is running like this. Whenever a person is dangerous for agencies or a country in Intelligence Agencies point of view, they threaten if you are in Pakistan, they kill you straight away or take you out of the bloom.

    Therefore, there is 1 difference that you are being killed in Pakistan but threatened only otherwise it would have to be different if you are in USA.

    I can count 10s of people who suffered and suffering more than you and me but they can't tell anybody, they are not journalist to give statements in media or articles or columns.

    I pray for you and your family be safe and sound from these things.

  118. Well someone called it hypocrisy, someone called it a drama, but don't forget the history of MQM, Who was Wali Khan Baber? Who murdered him? what were he reasons behind hi murder? why Law enforcement agencies not took any action against the murderer even if they've arrested them? Why the private news channel of Wali Khan Baber did not raise their voice to hang the killers and expose their political affiliation? Why ex federal Interior minister protected the two UK Returned murderers?

    Well, these questions are the answer of every MQM side takers. MQM is backed by UK and USA, thus they're being blessed by not only UK and USA government, but by the Pakistani Government too... The Guardian newspaper has also mentioned this thing...

    Wait for the new article that's going to be published in The New York times...

  122. مس انعم! ایک ایس پی کی کوئی حیثیت نہیں ہوتی ہے، ۔ ایم کیو ایم کے خلاف کوئی ایکشن لینے میں اگر پاکستانی حکومت سنجیدہ ہوتی تو عمران فاروق کے 2 قاتل جو پاکستانی ایجنسیز کی تحویل میں ہیں، انہیں اسکاٹلینڈ یارڈ کے حوالے کیا جا چکا ہوتا۔

    ایم کیو ایم برطانوی اور امریکی حکومت کا آالہء کار ہیں، لہذہ جب تک امریکہ اور برطانیہ کے مفادات مکمل نہیں ہو جاتے ہیں، نہ تو وہ ایم کیو ایم کے خلاف کوئی کاروائی کریں گے، نہ ہی پاکستانی حکومت کو کوئی کاروائی کرنے کی اجازت دی جائےگی۔

    آپکی دوسری بات کا جواب یہ ہے کہ ریکی 2،3 دن میں مکمل نہیں کی جاتی ہے، ریکی کرنے میں مہینوں بھی لگ سکتے ہیں، ایک عام بندہ جسکی نقل و حرکت گھر سے آفس اور آفس سے گھر تک محدود ہع اسکی ریکی تو باآسانی کی جاسکتی ہے، لیکن جسیمین منضور ایک نامور صحافی ہیں، وہ پروگرام کے سلسلے میں کراچی سے باہر بھی آتی جاتی رہتی ہیں، اسلئے انکی ریکی میں 2،3 دن نہیں لگے ہونگے زیادہ ٹائم لگا ہوگا۔

    باقی کینیڈا کی شہریت کے بارے میں تو میں نے ٹی وی پے کوئی خبر نہیں دیکھی، اسکا جواب تو خود جیسمین ہی دے سکتی ہیں آپکو۔۔۔

  123. Lets see what logic says about your situation

    1. If we assume that Security agencies did intercepted the call then that means they know for sure who was behind it. The calls are not intercepted randomly but they knew the people who they want to intercept.

    If they had know the people , did the arrest them? and tried in court. If NO , then it is self explanatory that they all are lying.

    2. If they knew it was MQM then it is the best time to strike on them with evidence in hand. Why PM and Interior Minister would miss this opportunity while other political party also wants the same?

    This again create suspicion if they really had something in their hand.

    3. All the journalist of Pakistan were talking about NA-250 ,what benefit would MQM have if you were assassinated? Actually being a journalist living in Karachi and killed there would bring more and more damage to MQM because everyone would point finger to MQM. MQM has to lose rather gain from your assassination.

    4. I am not an expert but "raikee" is done about the movement, timing and schedule of the person , date and time. It is surprising suspected people did all while you were on Umra. Their call was only intercepted and if Police was watching and monitoring them as well then it means those people are in police custody or well know to police.

    From your statement it is clear that Police did not have them otherwise they would not advice you to leave the country while the assassination are already capture.



    Be careful in what you say even now because your situation could be used and exploited even now.

    Hope it would be possible to know the truth.

  129. I have remembered your buttering interview with Mustafa Kamal. I am also living in Karachi. How you can expect a Mafia Party who is directly getting KMC funds from president (Islamabad Sector in-charge) that is more than the budget of Balochistan.The party who is getting Bhutta from builders at least 500000 to more than 10,000000. whose terrorist wing has harassed every one in the city. If any one has quarrel with any other in their influenced area then they are called to 90 to suppress their NTs.where all the journalist are warned to talk against them and no journalist dare to talk.the party who always won election by open rigging and no media dare to talk about them. whose yearly transaction is billions of rupees (Ex Interior minister Moin haider revealed this in 2002 and his bother was killed).Every one in Karachi knows about it and as journalist if you did not know then shame on you.
    I have seen on road built three time in two months that time. rain water never drained from tunnels since they are built. Can any one talk to audit about that work of that time. I have also experience of presiding officer and faced these terrorist and they just stamped their and won election.They said they have support of Musharaf and Governor.
    It is shame on you that you are now talking against them.

  143. I got so many answers lately as I was confused for couple of years that why a straight forward anchor like Jasmine was a little pro MQM earlier. For two reasons, 1 it was Samaa's enforced policy 2, MQM is from another angle are more civilized and a little free from class system but one only know them when something happens like happened with Jasmine.

    They are, however doesnt seems to be as ignorant as other political parties, still they are danger and the stupid Altaf makes things worse for them from time to time. It's clear that it wuold be either Altaf or the MQM who will live, MQM if want to exist, has to assassinate Altaf, like Altaf did to all the former leaders of MQM

  144. یہ ساری صورتحال بہت افسوسناک اور پریشان کن ہے۔ صحافی ہمیشہ صحافی ہی رہتا ہے وہ چاہے پاکستان میں ہو یا کہیں اور ہواور کسی بھی جگہ بیٹھ کر پہلے سے زیادہ اچھا کام کیا جا سکتا ہے۔

  146. It is so painful that once lovingly called Aroos-ul-Balaad, has turned into a real hell. Thanks to the mindless policies of General Zia and his cronies! Yes you did inform our new worthy PM but please don't forget he too is Zia's by product. Keep up your struggle, write much as possible and leave everything to God. May he be the real judge!

  147. Dear Jasmeen,

    I have seen you presenting your programmes as an anchor on different channels. Though by and large your views have been very truthful, there were some which I never agreed. But this is natural; no two persons are or should be expected of holding same views on all matters. If it were so, this world will be too drab a place to live in.
    But to have a difference of opinion doesn’t mean that I should go after your life. This is an opinion or attitude, which not only is dangerous but also a mindset that manifests the ‘TOTAL’ degeneration of a society’s moral responsibilities to have an environment in which we all can have our say.
    In what you have described in your story is highly pathetic. This is the worst case scenario in which a bold journalist like you have to go in hiding to express her views. But Jasmeen I do assure you, you are not alone in your struggle. I as part of the broader masses of Pakistan salute your stand to fight for the truth.
    I specially love and eulogise your stand when you declare that you would neither leave Pakistan nor leave your profession, come what may. This is an exemplary stand. Its unlike those so called great leaders of Pakistan who whenever they think there is time for them to struggle against the forces of tyranny and oppression, the very first thing they do is to leave for their cozy mansions, villas or palaces in either London, France or Jeddah.
    For you Jasmeen, I reproduce here an excerpt from the message I put up 14/8/13 (our independence day) on my blog.
    Many colleagues of the Quaid often talked about democracy but never had the political courage to fight for their positions through an independent, free and fair election. Mostly it was jhurloo i.e. stealing election through all type of corrupt practices as they thought it prudent to win by hook or by crook. [What you have described in your article is still the same old corrupt mindset and which still is trying to rob the election].
    Subsequent military rulers in Pakistan have been acting even worse than what their civilian counterparts did or still are doing. Most of them treated masses like cattle and were willing to kill their fellow countrymen in order to maintain a hold on power. Yes this country has had a tumultuous history, and has sinned greatly in its short history as a nation. But Pakistanis are a nation of fighters who have fought and spilled blood to have their say, their rights, for their nation’s glory, for their right to participate in fair and free elections, and so much more.
    And dear Jasmeen, I find you in particular one of those Pakistanis, the sons and daughters of the Pakistani motherland who fought and are still fighting, would sacrifice to have their say, their rights, for their nation’s glory, for their right to believe and propagate truth and nothing but truth.

    The core truth of Pakistan is that democracy as a culture is still in its infancy and is an ideal that its people must be vigilant in safeguarding and defending. It should never be traded in the name of comfort or that in the name of security and protection. This is what you have practically demonstrated. Salute to you Jasmeen, WE are all with you.

  148. How sad and painful to go through your blog. Honestly speaking at times, our anchors create such a volatile atmosphere for the sake of their ratings. There were occasions when I felt the same way about your shows, however never ever counted you as one of those anchors who does this just to flare up the scene.

    So sorry to hear about the incident and sincerely pray for your safety and well being. It is a harsh reality (and the sooner we accept the better it is) that we live in an MCP's society. Even more so ours is a sick political and pathetic governmental culture where we cannot take criticism towards improving our self but as a prime insult.

    I sincerely wish, hope and pray that you continue your efforts in exposing the true picture and reality of these arrays of disloyal bunch of politicians, army men, judiciaries and journalists...

    To end my response to your rather sympathetic truth I would suggest something to you with an Extreme Naik Niyyati. You said that you will never leave the country or the profession. However, I humbly suggest that it would not be an act of bravery but stupidity (excuse my French) should you not move to a safer place outside Pakistan specially when you know for a fact that you will not be hosting another show (at least for the time being) and would certainly like to dedicate time and efforts in completing your book. Please note that Hijrat for a cause does not fall in the category of cowardliness as it was done by our beloved prophet and his companions as well. May Allah bless you and your family and give you the wisdom to make the right decision....Ameen Duago A Pakistani brother..Arshad.
