Karachi: Inspector General (IG) Sindh Police Fayyaz Leghari on Monday said that almost 1702 people were killed in Karachi, a metropolitan of Pakistan, during the continuous wave of violence.
The IG Sindh reveled the factual report during a meeting on law and order at Chief Minister House, Karachi.
The Sindh police chief claimed that only 299 people fell prey to the wave of target killings across the city while 1279 were killed due to their personal enmities.
The chief further told the meeting that 114 incidents of killing were reported in the month of September (From 1 September to 27 September).
“Only 16 were killed due to the target killings while the 98 other were due to personal differences,” he said.
It is to be mentioned here that Karachi is facing a wave of sectarian and ethnic killings. The law enforcement authorities instead of their claims of coping up with the matter had failed to control the killings.
