Summary Senator Raza Rabbani of PPP offered some suggestions for restoration of peace in Karachi.

 

Speaking in the Senate session on Thursday, Raza Rabbani called for action against terrorists after evolving consensus amongst political and religious parties in Karachi, which has long faced wave of violence, ranging from sectarian and ethnic to political. He said coordination among the state agencies needed to be increased.


Rabbani said committees should be formed on province level to maintain peace, adding that suspected terrorists should not be freed from lockups. He said that the detainees should be given their legal rights.


He said that SHOs should not be appointed at the behest of others while law enforces should be provided with the phone tracking system facility. He said that efforts were continuing to pit state institution against each other.


Raza Rabbani warned that measures taken on country’s situation might prove ineffective. He said some elements attacked the parliament and the judiciary to scandalize the institutions.
