Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) has disowned the miscreants who are placing locks on gas meters. Company is set on taking action against these miscreants who are trying to tarnish the Company's reputation.

SSGC spokesperson, Shahbaz Islam said that so far, no official complaint has been received from customers regarding this criminal activity, however, the Company came to learn of these incidents from social media.

A post surfaced stating that a particular mafia is going around locking gas meters especially at night time and leaving a fake paper claiming certain amount for the restoration of gas or unlocking of the meter along with a contact number. The Company is taking serious actions against this mafia.

In statement he said, "Our team neither locks gas meters at night time nor demands any amount from the customers for the restoration of gas or unlocking of the meters. SSGC team first contacts the customers during daytime working hours at their residence, requesting for a copy of their recently due bill before taking any such action."

Shahbaz Islam requests all customers to notify SSGC at 1199 or 03238212246 if they are approached by any group or individual as SSGC representative to unlock their meters or make payment via Easy Paisa.-PR
