He said, “Special team will not perform any task in Malir District from today and onwards. Every person will face strict action after committing a crime. If a police officer is roaming with criminals then it will be a personal deed.”
In January, a police officer in Karachi had been arrested after he was found guilty of kidnapping for ransom.
The Anti-Violent Crime Cell (AVCC) had arrested Sub-Inspector Saeed over involvement in kidnapping for ransom.
In a statement, the AVCC pointed out that 35-year-old Mohsin Amin was abducted from Garden on December 31.
A day later of the abduction, the AVCC said the kidnappers demanded Rs25 lakh as ransom from the victim’s wife. The police officials further said that the abductors threatened the family members for killing the victim if their demands go unheeded.
After the ransom was paid and the victim returned, the case was transferred to AVCC. Later, the department arrested the accused – Sub-Inspector Saeed – and recovered the ransom money.
The accused police officer was posted in the District Central, while the hostage Mohsin Amin was safely recovered from the custody of the officer. A case has also been registered against the arrested accused.
