| [DAWN] Four more women were stabbed and injured by the "knifeman" in 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... in the vicinity of Aziz Bhatti and Shahrah-e-Faisal cop shoppes on Wednesday, bringing the official number of victims to 10, a police spokesperson told Dawn. Fear and panic prevailed among the residents of the area as police authorities fail to arrest ostensibly a lone attacker who has been on a stabbing spree since last week in Gulistan-e-Jauhar and adjoining areas. Fear gripped residents after reports surfaced of a "knife attacker" targeting women in the area. Subsequently, the police had launched a manhunt and an investigation into the motive and identity of the attacker. The latest attacks come after the Karachi East-Zone Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Sultan Ali Khowaja announced that police officials were deployed in at least 30 points in Gulistan-e-Jauhar along with decoy teams in order to prevent the attacks and arrest the culprit, a day before. According to the police, a woman was stabbed near Millenium Mall in the Gulistan-e-Jauhar area. Another woman was attacked at Aziz Bhatti Park in Gulshan-e-Iqbal. Both attacks occurred in the jurisdiction of the Aziz Bhatti cop shoppe. A third woman was attacked in Gulshan-e-Jamal that falls under the Shahrah-e-Faisal cop shoppe. The fourth incident was reported in Gulshan-e-Iqbal, where a 13-year old girl was stabbed and injured. She was taken to Jinnah hospital for treatment. The hospital’s executive director, Dr Seemin Jamali said that the girl sustained minor stab wounds on her back. |
