T HE National Accountability Bureau makes a request asking that the names of three politicians belonging to the same political party be put on the Exit Control List, suspecting they might try to flee the country to escape justice.

Not onlycan the police not find him, but the leader of another major political party, and a former president as well, publicly speaks up for the policeman on TV.
One can only think of a quote from Shakespeare: `O judgment though art fled to brutish beasts And men have lost their reason...
The people it seems couldn`t care less, just watching this Faustian drama.
