Expressing grave concern on spiralling incidentsof kidnapping for ransom in rural areas and street crime in the urbanareas of Sindh, Pasban Democratic Party (PDP) Chairman Altaf Shakoorhere Sunday said the worsening law and order is now going to affect oureconomy also.He said dacoits in the Katcha areas are equipped with modern militaryweapons and updated communication systems.

They have a vast network,presumably their informers present in every police station. He saidcorrupt police are not willing to purge its ranks and files from theblack sheep.He said in the urban areas, street criminals roam freely. They killcitizens on resistance.

They are not afraid of police and other lawenforcers. He said the rangers are present in the province but even thenthe crime graph in both urban and rural areas is on the rise.He said the provincial government of Sindh is a complete failure when itis a matter of law and order, as its main concern is lucrative kickbacks and commission in big contracts.

Altaf Shakoor said that now our highways are not safe and the banditsloot passenger and goods transport frequently. This would certainlyaffect our economy. He said that sophisticated military weapons arebeing provided to the dacoits in the Katcha areas of Sindh by spyagencies of the neighbouring enemy countries, but our own securityapparatus has been unable to break the nexus of dacoits and the Indiansecret agents.

He said this a grave concern affecting not only our internal securitybut our economy also and the State should take strong notice of it anddeploy an army in the Katcha areas and beef up rangers’ presence inurban areas to bust the criminal gangs.He said the Sindh police lack both courage and capacity to overpowerthese criminals and our army should actively assist them. He requestedthe chief of army staff Gen Syed Asim Munir to take notice of thesituation and do the needful to save Sindh from dangerously growingactivities of the criminal gangs in the rural and urban areas of Sindhprovince.
