Bandit Attack Claims Lives of Police Officers in Kandhkot

In a tragic incident at Dadar police check post near Duranri police station, Kandhkot faced a devastating attack by bandits resulting in the loss of two police officers' lives and severe injuries to two others. The fallen officers, Nisar Ahmed Kalhoro and Allah Dino Sabzoi, bravely served their duty, while Anwar Ali and Zahid Hussain Nasirani are currently receiving medical treatment for their injuries. The swift response of the police force led to the apprehension of a notorious criminal, Nazir alias Molai Bhayo, from the Bhayo gang, although two accomplices managed to escape.

The surge in criminal activities in Kashmore district, including murders, kidnappings, robberies, and drug trafficking, has posed significant challenges for law enforcement agencies. The katcha area, known for criminal elements, has become a major concern with civilians falling victim to hostage situations.

Of particular worry is the rise in kidnappings for ransom targeting vulnerable individuals like street vendors, rickshaw drivers, and security guards. Despite financial hardships, these individuals are preyed upon by ruthless criminals, reflecting the dire situation in the region.

Civil society groups and local residents have raised their voices against the escalating crime rates, urging Chief Minister Sindh Syed Murad Ali Shah and IGP Sindh to take decisive action. Calls for the removal of the SSP Kashmore have emerged, citing a failure to maintain law and order and ensure peace for the district's residents.

The recent attack in Kandhkot highlights the urgent need for enhanced security measures and effective law enforcement in Kashmore district. The sacrifices of the fallen officers underscore the dangers faced by those protecting the community. It is imperative for authorities to address the root causes of criminal activities and work towards ensuring the safety and well-being of all residents.
