Armed robbers looted Rs 1.15 million in cash from the staff of the Peoples’ Bus Service in Gulshan-e-Hadeed late Wednesday night. They later escaped with the cash, weapons and mobile phones. Citizens of Karachi reported theft of 3,773 motorcycles and 195 cars across the metropolis in February. 36 people were killed in separate incidents, the report said. More than 250 people in Karachi were shot dead and 1,052 others were wounded by street criminals between 2022 and 2024. Most citizens claim that no street in Karachi is safe, as they remain vulnerable to street criminals even amid bustling markets and broad daylight. The report said that as many as 1,402 mobile phones were snatched in Karachi last month. Many families in Karachi have lost their loved ones to street crimes, while others continue to live in fear of being the next victims. Several analysts had expressed deep concern over Karachi sliding towards lawlessness as robbers killed over 250 citizens in three years last year.
