Pakistan Transport Authority South Zone (PTA-SZ) acting chairperson Amir Majeed warned authorities on Friday about potential criminal activities and snatching of animal hides and skins during collection on Eidul Azha.
In a statement, he urged the relevant authorities to immediately repair the damaged portion of Road-5000 in the Korangi Industrial Area in front of the National Refinery. "The traffic flow is affected due to this damaged patch of the road, slowing down vehicles," he said. "Criminals take the opportunity to loot the commuters."
He expressed concern that the obstruction of traffic at this point could help criminals loot and hijack truckloads of hides and skins making their way to the Tannery Zone from various parts of the city during Eidul Azha.
"We have repeatedly approached the Korangi district deputy commissioner, the Karachi Metropolitan Corporation administrator, the Sindh chief minister and the Karachi commissioner to resolve this problem, but in vain," said Majeed.
