It is extremely painful to learn that Shuja Khanzada is no more in this world and he has been martyred for his only fault that he wanted to bring an end to terrorism at least in the Punjab. His uncle late Khanzada Taj Muhammad Khan to whom he was a successor in politics was a great personality of Attock district. I had fast relations with him and he was my client too. In every respect he was a person to be loved and for many to be followed. Terrorism which has now assumed alarming proportion in the country is the poisonous and venomous fruit of the tree planted by Zia-ul-Haq as a state policy to endure his regime. Nawaz Sharif rightly claims to be successor of Zia-ul-Haq in politics and executant of his mission. Unless he denounces his obsession for Zia-ul-Haq and declares with honesty, his complete severance from Zia ideology no effort to eliminate terrorism from Pakistan will fuctify as long as he remains an active player in politics.
