Expansion of the Karachi operation
[DAWN] THE seemingly stop-start Bloody Karachi...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... operation is to be expedited and its scope expanded to include the rest of Sindh as well. This was, broadly speaking, the outcome of the Sindh Apex Committee meeting on Wednesday which was called by the chief minister in the wake of the murder of two military police personnel the day before in Karachi. In a briefing to the media after the meeting, a number of practical measures to that end were spelled out. These include setting up 30 more Anti Terrorism Courts, appointing 200 prosecutors and an equal number of Sherlocks to ensure that over 7,000 cases of terrorism could be effectively processed.
