CJ says terrorists have taken over Karachi

KARACHI: Chief Justice of Pakistan Tassuduq Hussain Jeelani on Thursday said that terrorists and mafia have taken over Karachi while police seemed to have become helpless in stopping the killings in the city.

He said that violence and bloodshed made headlines in media while the rule of law could be gauged from the fact that half of vehicle owners didn’t have verified documents in the city.

The CJ said that 2000 people were killed in Karachi violence during the last year. He said that the court alone could not bring about a change.
