Sindh Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon on Wednesday strongly condemned the incident involving an arson attack on the house of Home Minister Ziaul Hassan Lanjar, describing it as a heinous conspiracy aimed at disrupting law and order in the province.

In a statement, Memon said that such violent actions are unacceptable in any civilized society. He emphasized that Lanjar is a respected politician and an elected representative of the people, and the attack on his residence is not just a personal matter but will be regarded as a direct assault on the Sindh government.

He stated that the individuals involved in this unfortunate incident will not be forgiven under any circumstances. He vowed that law enforcement agencies will apprehend those responsible at the earliest and ensure they are punished to the fullest extent of the law.

He said that the Sindh government is taking this incident very seriously and that a comprehensive investigation is being carried out from all angles to uncover all those involved in the conspiracy. He appealed to the public to remain patient and calm, refrain from heeding rumours, and place their trust in the state institutions.

Memon firmly stated that no one will be allowed to take the law into their own hands and that all mischievous elements will be dealt with an iron hand. He added that the entire Sindh government and the leadership of the Pakistan Peoples Party stand firmly with Home Minister Lanjar.
