Secretary General, Jamaat-e-Islami, Liaqat Baloch, has expressed deep concern over the rise in murders in the Punjab capital and has stressed upon the government and crime control agencies to check crime so that the city did not become Karachi, Beirut or New York.
He said this in a statement after visiting Millat Park area in Samanabad where five people had been gunned down in a dacoity attempt. Liaqat Baloch stressed that the government, the police, administration and the civil society should join hands to control crime before it was too late. He said that most of the police force was on VVIP duty due to which the general public was left at the mercy of professional criminals.
Meanwhile speaking at a party meeting, he said that India herself was facing anarchy yet Indian Premier Modi was trying to protect US interests. He said that if Modi did not stop atrocities on the Kashmiris and his war phobia, he could prove Gorbachev for India.
