The triple murder in Lahore on 27th January, 2011 is unique because it is being owned by the US Embassy in Pakistan. Video clip released by Dunya TV clearly shows that the accused of two murders Raymond Davis did not claim diplomatic immunity before the police on arrest. It seems very likely that he is some sort of a secret agent and was on a mission to eliminate two local agents Faizan Haider and Faheem Ahmed who may have lost cover or got out of line. If that is true, perhaps it would be safer for Raymond Davis who has now lost his own cover to live out the rest of his life in a Pakistani jail.
The interesting thing is that there are at least a dozen assasinations involving Americans in my memeory from Dallas in 1963 to Lahore in 2011 which carry the same signature, "In broad daylight on a busy street". For quite some time I have been wondering if there is a heinous murder squad of influential Americans still living in the cowboy era that orchestrates these murders.
The high level US delegations that have visited Pakistan in the last few days to secure the release of RD may also have committed indiscretion and exposed their membership of the murder squad. Time will tell.
