Quetta-Karachi highway: Transporters seek end to robberies

QUETTA: A representative body of transporters has urged the authorities to end the spate of robberies on Quetta-Karachi highway.

The writ of state is absent on the desolate stretches of highway, particularly near Kalat where passengers and crew of buses are robbed daily, All Quetta-Karachi Coach Union said on Sunday.

Meanwhile, in Sibbi transporters have said that robbers have set up check posts and no bus can cross safely.
