200+ Inmates Escape Malir Jail Sindh CM Issues Warning

“Only inmates committed minor offences have fled from the prison,” talking to media in Karachi Sindh’s chief minister said.

It is pertinent to mention here that over 200 inmates escaped from Karachi’s Malir Jail last night.

Murad Ali Shah told the fleeing jail inmates to surrender before the authorities, otherwise they would face legal consequences.

Chief Minister termed the decision to take the prisoners into open space from barracks “a misconceived decision”. “Those who take this decision would have to face punitive action”, the chief minister said.

Replying to a question about the issue of K-Electric, the chief minister said that when Karachi’s power utility was privatized, the Sindh government was not taken into the loop. Only the federal government is given representation on K-Electric’s board. “Sindh government has only been given responsibility,” Murad Ali Shah said.

He urged for Sindh’s representation in the K-Electric Board.
