Karachi, Oct. 15 (TNS): Proclaimed chief of Pakistan faction of Muttahida Quami Movement on Sunday Farooq Sattar said if Mayor Karachi Waseem Akhtar was given authority then the mysterious knife attacker would not have been arrested.

Addressing a gathering in Mahmoodabad here Sattar demanded that the control of the community police should be given to the mayor of the metropolis.

“If the system of eliminating crime is under the mayor then within 24 hours we will catch every knife attacker,” said Sattar.

The MQM-P chief said that the conspiracy against his party is a conspiracy against Pakistan.

Sattar said that if weapons can be recovered from water tanks then the ‘knives shouldn’t be out of grasp as well’.
