KARACHI: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leader and former Sindh Assembly member Shahzad Qureshi has said that the Sindh government has failed to control the increasing crime in Karachi.

Fearless robbers are killing citizens every day but no attention is being paid by the government, he said, adding that day by day students are being brutally killed for resistance, but no one is taking notice.

Unrelenting bandits shot and killed the father of five children, but the higher authorities did not go to anyone's house to condole, Qureshi said.

He further stated that incidents of firing on the highways of the city are also increasing, citizens of Karachi are losing their valuable property, mobiles and cash and the writ of the government is nowhere to be seen. Fed up with inflation and the current situation, the way a father of three children set himself on fire in an open field is also a blood-curdling incident, the ex-MPA remarked.

He said that the government of Sindh and the higher authorities should take immediate steps to establish the rule of law and ensure the protection of life and property of the people.
