ah salman

he had an air of infallibility

and

with 27 bullets pumped into his back, he would not know what hit him

and

if it is a consolation, he went peacefully

in the pressure cooker of politics, all the bigwigs' sleep is stolen with his demise

pity, if you cannot trust your guards, who can you trust?

Allah?

oh, well!

yes, life is a trust, and to Him all shall return

but like all other quotes, the above is uttered without conviction

lip service
