The Jamaat-e-Islami Secretary General Liaquat Baloch has strongly condemned the
on-going carnage in Karachi and demanded immediate resignation of the
Federal Interior Minister and the Sindh Home Minister on their total
failure.
In a statement here on Thursday, he said that the port city was in
the control of brutes. He said more than forty people had been gunned
down in Karachi within twenty four hours by Thursday noon. The Sindh
Home Minister had termed it the failure of the police. He said ome
Minsiter was Home the police and the administration were not in sight
while the abductions and killings of people were going on.
The JI Secretary General said that during the last one and a half
months, hundreds of families in Karachi had lost their dear ones. He
said, the killers were widely known and enjoyed political influence,
because of which the police did not touch them.
Liaquat Baloch said the government had completely failed to protect
the lives of the citizens and therefore, it had no right to cling to
power.
He said there was no reason for the Federal Interior Minister and
the Sindh Home Minister to cling to their offices while Karachi was
bleeding.
He expressed full sympathies with the bereaved families and prayed for those killed and for the quick recovery of the injured. SANA
