| 2014-01-09 |
| [DAWN] Governor Sindh Dr Ishratul Ibad Khan Wednesday expressed his satisfaction over the ongoing targeted operation citing "significant decrease" in murders and kidnappings for ransom and hoped that 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... will soon turn into a 'crime-free' city. "Earlier, around 26 cases of kidnapping for ransom were reported daily. Now, the number has gone down to one or two cases a day. Target killing is also under control. Soon the government will overcome all kinds of crime," he said. The governor was speaking to participants of National Security Workshop held under National Defence University at the Governor House, said an official statement. He said that the police and rangers were conducting targeted operations against the snuffies and outlaws even in those areas of the city where no such action had ever been taken in the past. Public confidence in the law enforcing agencies including Rangers, police and Citizen Police Liaison Committee (CPLC) has increased, he said. "Now, they do not hesitate to visit these agencies/institutions for getting their reports/complaints registered," he added. |
