MQM for military control on Punjab
KARACHI: Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) Sunday urged the Supreme Court of Pakistan to take suo motto notice of what it called increasing number of serious crimes in Punjab and also proposed Army’s control on the province.
According to a statement issued by MQM Coordination Committee here, the Punjab has witnessed 109 percent rise in crime rate compared to the last year.
“The incidents of terrorism, killings and kidnapping for ransom are at their peak in Punjab where life and property of the people is no longer secure,” the statement said, proposing handing over of the province to the Army ‘to control the situation made worse by lawlessness, bad governance and rampant crimes’.
