A Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP), Qasim Ghauri, and an Assistant Sub Inspector (ASI) of Police, Aslam, were killed while the Station House Officer (SHO) Haider Zaidi and two other constables were injured on August 15 during a six-hour-long operation to arrest a gang of extortionists in the Gulshan Town of Karachi District, the provincial capital of Sindh, reports The Express Tribune. The operation was carried out against gangster Zamin Shah Chandio, who was hiding in the settlements of Hussain Hazara Goth and Madho Goth near Safari Park in the Gulistan-e-Jauhar area of the Town. In retaliation the Police killed Zamin Chandio, along with his three accomplices Ilahi Bux Chachar, Ardillo and Sunbul Ahmed. According to Police details, Chandio had refused to pay bribe to the Gulistan-e-Jauhar Police Station and allegedly assaulted its Police Constable, Waseem. When the injured constable returned, the Police team went to raid the gangster’s hideout. However, the gangsters opened fire at the Police team killing Police officers. In retaliatory firing the gangster along with his accomplices was shot dead. Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Tahir Naveed, who was supervising the entire operation, criticised the Policemen occupying lower ranks in the Department. “Some black sheep of the Police Department were involved in giving permission to some criminals to run their illegal activities in the area,” he pointed out, adding that these Policemen had allowed gambling dens, land grabbing and extortions to take place under their patronage. “These same elements were involved in the Police encounter.” However, the leader of Jeay Sindh Tehreek (JST), an offshoot of Jeay Sindh Qaumi Mahaz (JSQM), Habib Jatoi admitted that the deceased were their party activists and the Police shot them dead in a fake encounter. When the Police reached the area, the activists surrendered themselves, he claimed. “Basically, it was an extra-judicial killing.”
