The Malir City police have arrested a suspect allegedly involved in a robbery at the home of a foreign national in Clifton. The arrested suspect, Fayaz, is accused of carrying out the heist along with his wife Sonia, who remains at large. Police are conducting raids to apprehend her.
According to SSP Malir Dr. Abdul Khaliq Pirzada, the robbery took place in October 2024 in Clifton Block 4, within the jurisdiction of Boat Basin police station. The victim, a Chinese national named Zou Bao Sheng, had employed Sonia as a domestic worker. Sonia allegedly gathered information while working in the house. She in association with her husband Fayaz stole Rs3 million in cash and gold jewellery and fled.
The Boat Basin police registered an FIR on the complaint of the foreign national. During interrogation, Fayaz confessed that he and his wife would frequently change their appearance and target homes using the same tactic, escaping to different parts of the country after each robbery.
SSP Pirzada confirmed that Fayaz had been hiding in Malir City and was arrested through an intelligence-based operation. The police continue to raid potential hideouts in an effort to apprehend Sonia.
Robbers thrashed
A quiet evening in Gulshan-e-Hadeed exploded into a scene unbridled vigilante justice as enraged citizens descended upon two suspected bandits attempting to pilfer a biryani shop. Two armed desperadoes stormed the eatery, and opened fire striking down an innocent bystander, but the tide of terror swiftly turned. A courageous man, armed with a licensed pistol returned fire, striking one of the assailants.
A furious mob then dragged the suspects, Ghulam Yaseen and Mukhtiar, into the street. Police, who recovered weapons and a bike from the beaten men, have launched a full-scale investigation.
