ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chief Imran Khan said on Thursday that an apolitical police force is the solution to the Karachi situation and not the deployment of rangers.

"The whole country is devastated by the Safora incident. People are as devastated as they were by the APS tragedy," Imran said.

The PTI chief said decisions were made at the all party conference that measures will be taken against terrorists but the situation has not changed. PTI even reluctantly agreed to the 'Army courts' decision, he added.

"The rangers will not be able to stabilise Karachi for long," Imran said.

"The police force needs to be properly inducted. In KPK the police are inducted via NTS whereas in Sindh, police is inducted via bribes."

Speaking about the judicial commission, the PTI chief revealed that an open trial is being conducted by the judicial commission.

"PML-N did not expect PTI to have any evidence but after witnessing their preparation they were taken aback. They are not even guilty that they called Mahmood Anwar a liar."

syed & syed | 9 years ago | Reply Please tell our Mullahs, politicians, establishment and all Pakistanis to read Soora Alnahal, Ayat 47: Urdu translation "Aur thay is shahr main 9 jathedar jo fisad machatay rahtay thay, mulk main islah karna naheen chahtay ". It is easy to work out who were these people,g-Governments of Pakistan and other countries, political and so called religious parties. Do not fear to name them. If you start counting they will be 9 religious terrorist parties, 9 countries, 9 political parties including factions. They are responsible to terrorize human mankind in Pakistan and other countries including the war game played now a days in Muslim Countries. This Ayat applicable to all. This killings will continue unless these culprits are not recognised and hanged publicly

Parvez | 9 years ago | Reply Imran Khan is very right when he says this.........there is a huge political vacuum in Sindh. The PPP-Z has failed miserably but no credible replacement has emerged .

shahid | 9 years ago | Reply Well, for police to become apolitical, we'll hlhave to eliminat two generations of Bhuttos, Zardaris and Sharifs.

Hasan | 9 years ago | Reply When MQM said the same, and demanded Army for Karachi, Khan Sb and his cronies were the biggest critics, and a year later after loosing hundreds of innocent lives, Khan Sb., finally realizes what he opposed MQM for was actually correct and today he has re-iterated the same statement.

sabi | 9 years ago | Reply Khan you used to call -Army is not solution to Taliban murderers. You used to threat public servants of dire consequences. You used to pressurize judiciary in your talk shows. This is called politicizing of institutions. Shame on you talking for apolitical force.

Ch. Allah Daad | 9 years ago | Reply There is not a single person in Pakistan who is non political, non religious and non ethnic.
