Robbers rule Karachi; 33 robbed of lives in first quarter of ongoing year

Robbers have been ruling the roost in the port city of Karachi, the 24NewsHD TV channel reported on Tuesday.

So far 33 people, including a woman and a policeman, have been robbed of their lives during the ongoing year in the Sindh capital, according to estimates. A hundred people have sustained injuries during dacoities so far, the reports suggest.

In the first four days of March, three people, including a woman, fell prey to robbery-cum-murder strikes.

Last night, robbers shot and injured five people, including a child.

A policeman among 18 people lost their life in street crimes in February, while in January, 12 people fell prey to robberies.

People have been making a litany of complaints against the robber’s raj but to no avail.
