        @ashrafkhalil @Karachi_Post Old let them fight it out and then clear the mess it seems. May be valid reasons as to initial delay.

        @ashrafkhalil but there's an advantage to just standing still and letting it play out for a bit.

        @ashrafkhalil ..they have to secure their location before they move to a new one. I think it's logistics if it's only 90 mins.

        @ashrafkhalil Troops have rules of engagement, if interfering is not part of it then they have to wait for orders....
