Interior Minister Rehman Malik said FIA and forensic teams are conducting investigation into the Karachi fire incident. He confirmed the death toll of 264 in the Karachi fire.
He regretted that the Punjab government has not shown any concern or started investigation into the Lahore fire incident,adding he has directed the Punjab IG to submit report on the incident and he is likely to receive the report in one or two day time.
Malik also said the UN working group on enforced disappearances will not be allowed to conduct any kind of investigation in the country.
He added there is a law of land and the country’s institutions are efficient enough to conduct any sort of investigation. He‚ however‚ said the UN working group will be provided the information it required.

  1. Why is it that inorder to ensure the implementation of security or safety , a catastrophe has to take place inorder to wake up the officials and government from their slumber?

  2. I do not believe this statement. They always announce such things when something big happens like this. The existing situation is due these corrupt politicians misgovernance across the country. They are completely unconcience persons…

  3. I dont understand why is it always that whenever such tragic event happens we are told that steps will be taken to ensure safety laws to prevent further loss in future. After some time all in forgotten. Take it in the case of building collapse in lahore earlier this year and now the karachi incident. Any one such incident should have been an eyeawkener for the government and the authorites responsible to ensure these laws but its unfortunate that after every such event we are told the same old story. Unfortunaetly there are countless buildings and factories in our country which donot govern any safety laws. The concern authorities should ensure these laws so that no such incident happens in future.
