Bisma Baloch’s Killer:The Scoundrel Blocked Roadways & Hospital Access
Time to Ponder
“My daughter died because of the system [protocol],” said the father. Rejecting police inquiry into the matter, he said, “I don’t blame anyone for the demise of my girl but I feel her separation very badly.”
Infant dies as Bilawal’s security prevents family from entering hospital
The 10-month-old baby girl died on Wednesday when Bilawal was inaugurating the newly constructed trauma centre at the Civil Hospital Karachi. The father, who rushed his sick girl to the hospital, was allegedly denied entry into the hospital due to protocol.
Baloch said that Bilawal assured him that two jobs in the public sector would be given to him while his house will also be reconstructed. “Nothing has been provided to me as yet,” he said.
Explaining his financial condition, Faisal said that he was jobless for the last two months, saying it was a hard time for him and his family. “I am not an educated person but a technically sound one,” he said.
On the other hand, Bilawal’s political secretary and member of party’s central executive committee, Jamil Soomro, said, “All promises to Faisal Baloch will be fulfilled.” He said that the party chairperson visited Bisma’s family before leaving for Larkana, adding that he had reached Karachi on Tuesday.

“The chairman also assured Faisal that he would himself see the investigation report and no one will be allowed any leniency,” said Soomro. Speaking to The Express Tribune, Soomro said that he will meet Faisal and will resolve his issues, including providing him a job at a suitable place.
Meanwhile, the residents of the area, Lyari, continue to meet the aggrieved father daily and ask him to stand by his word against protocol system that takes the life of innocent people. “Lyari’s youth supports Bisma’s family,” said Musawwar Ali, a resident living near Baloch’s home. “We’ll not leave him alone. If he goes against the system, the whole of Lyari will be with him.”
