Pakistan: Sindh police chief warns about possible terror attack
Sindh police chief Mushtaq Ahmed Mahar, taking notice of intelligence reports and interrogations of militants of different groups conducted by counterterrorism wings, has issued an alert for a possible terror attack by separatist outfits in the Pakistani region in the upcoming days.
A circular issued in this regard on Friday by the assistant IG - Operations of the Sindh Police on behalf of the provincial inspector general of police, says that the possible sabotage acts could be carried out in the early days of September, especially from September 4 to September 7, reports The News International.
It says the miscreants could use locally made crackers and hand grenades in Pakistan, especially in the interior parts of Sindh, to cause lawlessness or an environment of fear and intimidation.
The relevant police officials have been directed to ensure the provision of security at railway stations, installations of electricity, gas, railway lines, bus terminals, bus stands, power transmission lines, markets, wholesale fruit and vegetable markets, and other such places in their jurisdictions where people usually gather in large numbers, the newspaper reported.
The Sindh police chief has asked the relevant officials to beef up patrolling by policemen to ensure that the life and property of citizens and government officials remains fully secured in these areas.
