MQM’s Rabita Committee expresses condemnation of carnage in Lyari. 
Effective measures should be taken to protect life and property of people in Lyari.
MQM’s Rabita Committee has expressed condemnation of carnage in Lyari in the strongest possible terms. They have expressed deep sorrow over the tragic incident in which scores of innocent people have been killed and injured by  Lyari gangsters.
In a statement issued from Karachi Rabita Committee said, “For the last few years innocent and hardworking people of Lyari are hostage at the hands of gangsters of Lyari.  These gangsters have been killing innocent men, women and children. Today these gangsters carried out indiscriminate firing which resulted in the deaths of 17 people including 4 women and 2 children. Scores of people are injured. “
The Rabita Committee said that elected representatives of the area have vanished and no one had come forward to rescue them from these gangsters. They deplored that it appeared that they had been left the people at the mercy of terrorists and gangsters. 
“In the light of these facts people of Karachi are justified in asking the question why killings, robberies and kidnapping  are occurring at time when an targeted operation is going against criminal elements and terrorists in the city. Why are people of Lyari still hostage to criminals and gangsters? Why have elected representatives vanished?,” Rabita Committee said.
“In the name of targeted operation innocent people are being killed extra judicially. Raids are being conducted and detainees are being implicated in fabricated charges. It is strange and shocking that no action is being taken against the gangsters who are killing people in Lyari. No effective measures have been taken to protect life and property of people in Lyari, “ Rabita Committee members said.
The Rabita Committee members have demand an action from prime minister, federal interior minister and Governor of Sindh for the arrest of these gangsters. They expressed their condolences with the family members of the dead and injured.
