Restoration of law and order in Karachi is government’s responsibility: Naik

Naik states that Government of Sindh can ask for help from the federal government for handling law and order.

KARACHI: Karachi has not been left alone by the Pakistan People Party (PPP) government and the provincial government is also responsible for the restoration of peace in Karachi after the 18th amendment, said Federal law minister Farooq H Naik on Saturday, Express News reported.

Speaking to the media after addressing a seminar, the law minister stated that the Government of Sindh can ask the federal government for help in order to handle the law and order situation.

Naik said investigations in the NAB officer Kamran Faisal death case were underway so no assumptions should be made.

He added that the formation of the caretaker government has not been finalised as yet and it will be decided with the consent of the prime minister and opposition leaders.

Killings in Karachi have continued despite promises made by the authorities.

Earlier on February 7th, the SC bench hearing the  Karachi unrest case remarked that the government is not taking the matter seriously and the court is carrying out a meaningless task.


The Supreme Court, on February 8th, came down hard on the Sindh government for not making a serious effort on laws for illegal weapons despite having the power to do so.
