In a conversation with the media, Sindh government spokesperson Saadia Javed said that there is a shortage of police in the city, and it is possible that security was withdrawn from MQM Pakistan leaders due to this reason.
She said that she herself has no police security, nor do the Sindh government’s MPAs have any security; there must certainly be reasons for withdrawing security from MQM Pakistan leaders.
Saadia Javed said that the failure to establish a forensic lab in Sindh is a shortcoming of the government, and the Sindh forensic lab will become operational by the end of this year.
On a question regarding the relocation of Gul Plaza affected people, the Sindh government spokesperson said that there are two plazas in front of Gul Plaza where shopkeepers will be shifted; the government is talking to the plaza owners—there are 500 shops in one plaza and 350 in the other.
The Sindh government spokesperson said that a committee will assess the damage to Gul Plaza, and the government will also compensate for it; the committee will submit a report on the damage to Gul Plaza to the government within three weeks.
