In another statement, the KESC strongly condemned the target killing of one of its senior officials, Col (retd) Muhammad Ali Saqi, who was an integral part of the KESC security department. Saqi was an extremely dedicated and hardworking member of the team that was assigned the task of eradicating corruption within KESC and the government must take serious notice of this extreme act of terrorism against an important official of the company and ensure security of the people and the assets of KESC, the statement added.
The KESC management also expressed deep condolence and solidarity with the family of the deceased and urged the government to bring his murderers to justice. “His killing would adversely affect our efforts to eradicate the menace of corruption within the KESC ranks,” said one of the KESC officials. He added that the tragic demise of Saqi had come at a time when KESC was up against both internal and external forces, resisting the change and reform process in the KESC.
