A huge sinkhole emerged on I.I. Chundrigar Road near Shaheen Complex after an underground sewer pipeline ruptured.
According to the Karachi Traffic Police, the sinkhole was formed after a 72-inch pipeline caved in.
The situation caused panic among the pedestrians and motorists after they hardly escaped falling into the 2-foot wide diameter and 4-foot deep depression.
Traffic jams also occurred on the road due to a sinkhole, causing trouble for commuters.
It merits mentioning that similar incidents have already happened in the city in Civil Lines Area, Tariq Road and some other places.
