Karachi, Amid rising concerns over escalating crime rates, Tariq Chandiwala, the Chief Organizer of the Pasban Democratic Party in Karachi, voiced grave concerns about the detrimental impact of unchecked criminal activities on society. He criticized the ineffective response from law enforcement agencies, highlighting that 68 citizens have been killed by criminals in just over four months, questioning the adequacy of existing security measures.
According to Pasban Democratic Party, the ongoing violence and theft in Karachi symbolize a broader societal decay facilitated by a failing justice system. The party’s statement underscores the urgent need for robust law enforcement and judicial responses to curb the increasing crime rate, which is seen as encouraging further violence and disrupting civic life. Chandiwala pointed out that the state’s primary duty to protect its citizens’ lives and properties appears neglected, with continuous incidents of robbery and murder raising doubts about the effectiveness of the Anti-Street Crimes Force.
