KARACHI: Major opposition parties on Sunday condemned the Pakistan Peoples Party-led provincial government and Sindh police for failing to stop miscreants from torching restaurants, offices, vehicles, etc in Bahria Town Karachi (BTK) in the garb of a protest organised by nationalist parties.
Sindh Governor Imran Ismail also expressed his concern over the Sindh police and said that the inspector general of police had failed to take preventive measures despite getting prior reports of a possible breakdown of law and order.
On Sunday afternoon, participants in a protest demonstration organised by the Sindh Action Committee against BTK on Superhighway turned violent when they entered the premises, torched a main gate, two restaurants, many offices and vehicles besides ransacking properties.
