Crackdown on Karachi journalists

The crackdown on Karachi journalists on Tuesday was awful:

Police brutality at Karachi Press Club on Nov. 20, 2007

Of course the police were as incompetent as they were brutal. It seems that the police were rather clueless about what to do with the many people they had arrested (more than 200). They had no room at any of the thanas and apparently drove around the city checking at various thanas for space! One of the cops even lost his way.
