Karachi police chief seeks report on DHA residents' scuffle, cops' alleged involvement

Karachi police chief seeks a report within three days on a recent scuffle involving two DHA Phase 6 residents and alleged police misconduct, following the viral CCTV footage of the incident. Karachi Additional Inspector General Azad Khan ordered the South deputy inspector general to submit a complete and unbiased report, instructing all aspects of the case to be assessed and those involved to be identified.

The CCTV footage showed a woman charging at another with a dumbbell and a man attempting to smash a CCTV camera. However, the first information report filed by a woman described a different scenario where a man, his sister, and mother came to her door, kicked it, and verbally abused her over a parking issue. Local police took the brother and sister into custody, while the mother fled, and the woman claimed that the others snatched her gold earring and two rings.
