Wasan rejects claims of Mirza for issuing 300,000 arms licenses

KARACHI: Sindh Home Minister Manzoor Wasan said that the claims of former Sindh senior minister Zulfiqar Mirza regarding issuing 300,000 arms licenses are wrong.

Speaking to reporters in his office, Wasan asserted that only 700,000 arms licenses have been issued from 1947 to 2000. As reported earlier this month, addressing a massive public gathering in Lyari, Mirza said he was ‘proud’ to have issued 300,000 weapon licenses during his tenure.
On the other side the law enforcement agencies are working accordingly to overcome the law and order situation and arrested seven more alleged target killers during last 24 hours, he added. Online
