STRATEGY: A strategy has been formulated for curbing robberies and other crimes in residential, commercial and industrial areas, said Karachi Additional Inspector General of Police (AIGP) Akhtar Hussian Gorchani on Sunday. He was talking with a 10-member delegation of North Karachi Association for Trade and Industry led by Faraz Mirza. The AIGP informed the participants of the meeting that the strategy not only includes cooperation with people but reactivation of the Madadgar-15 centres as well. “The effective results of policing are not possible without the cooperation of citizens,” he said. “That is why special attention is being paid towards community policing,” he added.
