Chaudhry Usama Wains received a message on his Facebook page in January 2018. An aspirant for a Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly seat was interested in buying a lion and wanted it delivered to a specific location in Peshawar. Wains, who deals in animals, drove from his home in Faisalabad along with an African lion and a couple of companions a few days later. As they were about to reach the designated spot, two cars approached them. Some men got out of them and took away the lion forcibly – without paying a penny for it. Wains does not know who the lion snatchers were but he suspects that they were sent by the politician who had sought the lion’s delivery. Politics and lions have a close association in Pakistan. Politicians who make a name for themselves often come to be known as the lions – undisputed rulers – of their respective constituencies or districts. A few of them have gone on to earn the title of Sher-e-Punjab – the lion of Punjab province; the most famous of them being a former chief minister and provincial governor, Malik Ghulam Mustafa Khar. At least one political leader, Nawaz Sharif, has been elevated by his supporters to the exalted status of a babbar sher – a lion king. When he arrives to address public gatherings, he is always greeted with cheers of dekho dekho kaun aya, sher aya, sher aya (look, who is here – a lion). For some inexplicable reason, however, a lion is not included in the list of election symbols approved by the Election Commission of Pakistan. N...

PAKISTAN Nawaz Sharif: The old ‘lion’ of Pakistan roars back Throughout his eventful life, Nawaz Sharif has served terms as Pakistan’s prime minister and time in prison. He’s also faced a coup and years in exile. But now the old “lion of Punjab” faces some of the biggest challenges of his political career. Read more On the bloody 2013 Pakistani campaign trail, as international audiences were grappling with headlines of deadly election-related violence, residents of the eastern city of Lahore were confronted with a danger of a feline nature -- perched on a car. Making its way through the noisy streets of Lahore, a live white tigress majestically surveyed the gaping crowds. At times, the convoy bearing the tigress passed cars and street stalls strapped with stuffed-toy versions of tigers and lions, many of them shoddily-created replicas of the real thing. The white tigress disdainfully regarded the cheap imitations as the convoy of honking cars with singing, dancing and shouting supporters moved on. Sandy, a white tigress owned by a Nawaz Sharif supporter, was taken to numerous campaign rallies. Despite reports that she had died due to heat and exhaustion, Sandy is alive and well, according to a BBC reporter who interviewed her owner. Election campaigning is a colorful affair in Punjab, Pakistan’s most populous province, and the inclusion of Sandy, the white tigress, in the fray did not, for the most part, raise too many eyebrows on the streets of Lahore. In the weeks and mo...
