Karachi Rangers’ special powers again extended


KARACHI: Rangers in this beleaguered city by the target killers have again been awarded with the powers of police under which they’ll be entitled to conduct raids, detain and interrogate suspects at their own, Geo News reported.

Rangers enjoyed these powers for months when these were conferred upon them early this year. However, the law and order situation in this mysteriously violence ridden industrial and business hub has yet to see any improvement.

While the controversial Sindh government home minister, Zulfiqar Mirza is said to be on medical leave for an indefinite period, the Federal law Minister, Rahman Malik has been frequently visiting Karachi with the promise of relieving the vexed citizens of the target killers, but to no avail.

Both the federal and provincial administrations have been claiming that they have successfully arrested almost all the target killers, yet to the misfortune of the citizens perhaps the ghosts of these killers continue the killing spree unabated, as the city finds no break in at least on the average losing six persons’ precious lives everyday.
