Land mafia responsible for deteriorated law and order situation; Supreme Court

Supreme Court of Pakistan on Tuesday issued an interim order in the deteriorating law and order situation of Karachi, holding land mafia responsible for the entire saga.

 

A larger bench of the Supreme Court of Pakistan Tuesday issued a 10-page interim order in the Karachi law and order situation case. The apex court ordered the Rangers authorities to summit a comprehensive report about the performance of the force.

 

The order said that revenue department’s reply regarding the allotment of government lands was unsatisfactory.

 

The Supreme Court also ordered the Chief Secretary to fix revenue records and present its report within three months. The court has ordered Chief Secretary Sindh, Senior Member Revenue Board, Deputy Commissioner and DPOs to make sure that court orders are implemented.

 

Redrawn since 2002, the voter boundaries have been a bone of contention among major stakeholders in Karachi. Rival political parties claim the constituencies have been drawn on ethnic lines to influence polling results. These differences have claimed hundreds of lives over the recent years.

 

The apex court in its various recommendations had included delimitation of constituencies to split the influence of certain political or ethnic groups.
