Moreover, Siyal said, IG Sindh has not been deprived of any power and that the Sindh High Court was not show the complete picture of the matter.
The provincial interior minister further said he did not have the authority for transfers and the Sindh government was implementing all orders sent by the court.
When asked about the knife attacks in Karachi, Siyal said the police did not book any innocent person in the cases. A few days back, the anti-terrorism court granted bail to Shahzad, who was arrested over suspicion of carrying out knife attacks in the city. However, police told the court no evidence was found against the arrested suspected.
About street crime in Karachi, Siyal said effective measures were being planned to rid the city of the menace.
