Karachi unrest case: SC rejects AG’s report


Karachi: The Supreme Court of Pakistan (SC) has expressed its reservations and rejected a report submitted by Attorney General Munir A Malik regarding the smuggling of arms and drugs in the country, say media reports.
A larger bench of the SC headed by Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry was hearing the Karachi law and order implementation case today at its Karachi Registry.
During today’s proceedings, Attorney General Munir A Malik presented a report about the smuggling of weapons and drugs in the country, prepared in a meeting attended by the authorities of Maritime Security Agency (MSA), Coast Guards, Anti Narcotics Force (ANF) and other concerned departments.
The bench, while expressing its annoyance, rejected the report presented by the AG. The CJ reprimanded the authorities and said that the report does not include details of steps implemented by the concerned institutions to stop the heinous crimes, rather it has only explicated the legal clauses
