KARACHI: According to Dr. Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui, convener of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P), “non-local” police and administration were forced on the port city, and he called it an injustice for the people, The News reported on Friday.
During a labor wing of the party-organized iftar dinner in North Nazimabad, the politician claimed that Karachi had non-local police, calling this an injustice to the city’s residents.
Siddiqui questioned why the province’s capital city had a non-local police force, pointing out that other major centers in Sindh had their own citizens working in state and federal organizations.
We are going through numerous political phases as a country, and we are forced to use non-local administration and law enforcement. But the MQM-P has reclaimed the mandate once more.
Siddiqui claimed that “ghair maqami,” or non-local, bandits were killing young people in Karachi through street violence, citing the city’s growing number of youth fatalities from such incidents.
“Young people in the city are being brutally murdered by out-of-town bandits during Ramadan,” the MQM-P leader claimed.
He went on to say that Sindh’s “racist” administration had been given free rein and that although his party had been silent throughout Ramadan, it will now speak out about the deaths of young people in the city at the hands of outside bandits.
