Justice Amir Hani Muslim remarked that, “one who calls him IG does not know what is going on under his subordination. Your report is pieces of paper for us. We have no interest therein. There is nothing therein except statistics. It looks as if you want to tell nothing. It seems from your talks you have no control over Karachi police.”
