Meanwhile, in an effort to cripple the capability of terrorists to easily plan and coordinate criminal activities, the Sindh Provincial Government on October 3 decided to block access to popular internet telephone services and Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) applications, which they say militants use for communication, reports Dawn. The services affected by the three-month suspension may include Skype, WhatsApp, and Viber, among other applications. “Criminal elements and terrorists have smartly switched to these networks. Previously, they communicated through their cellular phones. Now they have switched to networks to which we do not have access,” Provincial Information Minister Sharjeel Memon said. “For this (access) we have written to the Federal Government to coordinate with these companies to grant us access to them. Until then, we unfortunately have to announce to all citizens of Sindh that these services will be inaccessible all over the province for the next three months,” said the Provincial Minister.

Sindh High Court (SHC) on October 3 directed that a report be submitted before it regarding the action the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) took against former President General (retired) Pervez Musharraf for abrogating the Constitution, reports The Express Tribune. Agha Syed Attaullah Shah, the Chairman of the Rah-e-Raast Trust (RRT), had gone to the court against the FIA for allegedly not registering case against Pervez Musharraf despite an undertaking submitted by the Federal Government to the Court. The petitioner said the former President had abrogated and subverted the Constitution on November 3, 2007 by declaring emergency. Musharraf being the then Chief of Army Staff (COAS) put many judges of the superior courts in wrongful confinement,” the petitioner stated in his plea, filed in 2011. The petitioner argued that the Supreme Court’s full bench had later declared the imposition of the Provisional Constitutional Order (PCO) and emergency as unconstitutional through an order passed on July 31, 2009 and the trustees of the RRT had authorised the petitioner to approach the FIA and file a petition in the high court for initiating legal action under Sections 2 and 3 of the High Treason (Punishment) Act against Musharraf. According to the petitioner, he approached the FIA authorities for registration of his complaint, but no action had been initiated. The petitioner told the two-judge bench headed by Justice Munib Akhtar that the high court had disposed of his petition on March 9, 2011 in view of the undertaking given by a Deputy Attorney General (DAG) that the FIA would take action. “But, no action has been taken to date,” he pleaded. DAG Mohsin Imam informed the court that he had been assigned the case recently, and requested for time to seek details from the FIA.

The Express Tribune, while quoting a report submitted by the former Sindh Prosecutor General Shahdat Awan to the Supreme Court, reported on October 22 that more than 5,000 cases registered under the arms and explosives acts are pending trial. According to official statistics, these cases — estimated at 5,566 — form a large chunk of the cases gathering dust in the subordinate courts in the city. Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, during the last hearing of the Karachi law and order suo motu implementation case, had expressed extreme displeasure over the performance of the provincial prosecution department and called the record of pending criminal cases. The prosecutor General’s report showed that 5,270 cases registered under the Arms laws and 296 under the Explosives Act were registered by the Police from October 6, 2011 to May 31, 2013, and have been pending in the courts ever since. Of the 20 directives given in the landmark judgment in the Karachi violence case, which in opinion of many jurists is the recipe for healing the city’s wounds, only one has been implemented so far – amendments to the Arms Law.

According to a October 24 report by the Prime Minister's Special Cell on polio, militant attacks on Pakistan’s polio workers have killed 27 vaccinators and Police guards during the past year and a half, reported Central Asia Online. The report, released in connection with World Polio Day (October 24, 2013), said 16 of those killed were from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The most recent attack occurred in October when a militant bomb killed five people – including Police guarding a polio team and local volunteers aiding the team in Badhaber area of Peshawar. Another attack in the same locality a few months ago killed two female polio workers. Meanwhile, the Government on October 24 decided to include polio vaccination on the agenda of dialogue with the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) as 90 per cent of the cases during the current year have been reported from Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) where the militants have banned anti-polio campaigns. Minister of State for Health Regulations Saira Afzal Tarar said that Taliban should understand the fact that children were suffering because of their ban on the polio drives. She said so far this year 49 cases of polio had been reported in Pakistan - 36 in FATA, three in Punjab, four in Sindh and six in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. “Polio virus circulation has been restricted to three zones, that is, FATA, Quetta and its neighbouring Districts of Qilla Abdullah and Pishin and Karachi’s Gadap Town.” She added that 260,000 children in North and South Waziristan Agencies had not been vaccinated against polio since July 2012. It may be noted that since July 2012, 24 health workers and Policemen protecting them have been killed and 14 others injured in 24 targeted attacks on vaccinators in different parts of the country.

Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry on October 29 said that if the flow of smuggled arms and narcotics is restricted throughout Karachi, situation in the city would be normalised, reported The News. He appreciated Police and Rangers for making efforts to arrest criminals during operation in the city and remarked that both Law Enforcement Agencies had begun to realize their responsibility. Other members of the bench were Justice Jawad S. Khuwaja and Justice Gulzar Ahmed. After flipping through the reports submitted by Rangers and Police regarding clampdown against outlaws, one member of the bench asked counsel appearing on behalf of Rangers whether arrested criminals were being put on trial in the courts. Rangers counsel told the court that Rangers handed over the culprits arrested by them to Police, who lodged First Information Report (FIR) and charge-sheeted them in the courts, adding that several culprits were also being interrogated by Joint Investigation Team. To a question regarding results of operation being conducted in the city, Advocate General Sindh Khalid Javeed Khan said that operation was yielding results and law and order situation in the city had improved tremendously. The chief justice questioned advocate general about the situation prevailing in Lyari and also asked whether Lyari was still no-go area and citizens were enjoying rights under Article 9 of the Constitution, which guaranteed security to every citizen. The Supreme Court also issued notices to Sindh Chief Secretary, Inspector General Police (IGP) and Director General (DG) Rangers over 51 identical petitions pertaining to no-go areas in Karachi. The petitions were filed by citizens in the apex court. During the hearing, Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhamamd Chauhdry asked Karachi Police Chief Shahid Hyat to take across the board action and assured him of court’s backing.

As part of its delimitation plans for Sindh, the Provincial Government on October 30 decided to create a new District in Karachi to give the metropolis six Districts in all, reported The Express Tribune. Currently, Karachi has five Districts, but the Government is considering reworking their boundaries to include Korangi Town, Landhi Town and Bin Qasim Town in a new District. Earlier, Sindh Government had announced the decision to divide Thatta into two, turning Sujawal into a separate District. Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Karachi President Abdul Qadir Patel said that the Government was considering bifurcating Karachi as well. “One or two more Districts will be made in Karachi to ease the administrative matters,” he said, adding that the decision was purely administrative and not political. However, the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) had previously voiced strong opposition to the idea of delimitation of constituencies in Karachi. In May 2013, the MQM appealed against it in the Sindh High Court (SHC), but the SHC dismissed their appeal.

The Law Enforcement Agencies will start a door-to-door drive for recovery of illegal arms since the deadline for surrendering such weapons had expired and only 19 guns were collected, Sindh Advocate General Khalid Javed Khan told the Supreme Court on October 30, reported The Express Tribune. During the 14-day deadline, from September 27, 2013 to October 12, 2013 only 19 guns were deposited with the authorities. He conceded before the apex court’s larger bench, which was hearing the Karachi law and order suo motu case at the Karachi registry, that the first phase of the campaign had yielded no positive results as citizens did not come forward. He, however, expressed confidence that the second phase would be more successful. The Surrender of Illicit Arms Act 1991 empowers law enforcers to get publicised notices, asking the citizens to deposit the weapons they possess unlawfully to avoid legal action. Once the deadline of a certain period expires, the law enforcers can forcibly recover the illegal weapons from citizens. For this purpose, door-to-door raids can be conducted, while curfew can also be imposed in certain localities to make it a success. The Supreme Court also directed the Chief Collector Customs Prevention Nasir Masroor to submit a detailed report regarding the large number of smuggled arms and ammunitions that have been lying at the port premises since 1994. The commission, appointed by the Supreme Court to investigate the Director General Rangers allegations regarding a missing shipload of arms and ammunitions, had conducted inquiry to see whether the weapons were smuggled through the sea and the role of customs authorities in the scam. According to the commission’s report, a large number of weapon consignments smuggled into the country back in 1994 were confiscated by the authorities. “The cache of arms is still lying on the port premises in the custody of the Karachi Port Trust,” the chief collector confirmed the commission’s report. “We are sitting on a volcano,” remarked the bench, citing that the whole city was full of these illicit arms and ammunitions and drugs. “But none is ready to take up the responsibility,” they added. The customs authorities were directed to submit a report about the number of arms seized on October 31 (today), when the matter would be taken up again.

The Supreme Court on October 31 observed that Karachi can be saved only if the drugs and arms’ menace that plagues the city is reined in, reports Daily Times. While hearing the Karachi law and order case, a three-member bench of the Supreme Court headed by Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry sought a detailed report by today (November 1) from Customs officials about import of arms through sea ports during the last three years. The bench remarked that extraordinary steps and measures are required to maintain peace in the city and that all government functionaries are responsible for it. It observed that the “black money” from narcotics and smuggling of different items has a major role in disturbance of peace in the city and is affecting economic activities in the commercial hub of the country. The court ordered indiscriminate action against the elements involved in disturbing peace in the city. It observed that during raids police and Rangers have recovered a huge quantity of illegal weapons from the city, and noted that back-up support from federal institutions like Customs, Anti-Narcotics Force, Coast Guards and Federal Board of Revenue is required for bringing further improvement in the situation.
