Pillion riding bans in Karachi over fears of target killings
[DAILYTIMES.PK] The Sindh government on Sunday imposed a ban on riding double, sometimes triple or quadruple for 30 days, citing reports that murders in the city can rise and further deteriorate the law and order situation in Bloody Karachi
...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous...
.A notification issued by the provincial home department maintained that the action has been taken amid rise in criminal activities in the port city.

The decision from the provincial authorities came on the request of Additional Inspector General Karachi Ghulam Nabi Memon, who conveyed his fears in a letter to the home department on October 10 saying miscreants and disgruntled elements may disturb the peace and create law and order problems in Karachi by carrying out assassinations.

The communique maintained that incidents such as lobbing of hand grenades and assassinations of law enforcement personnel as well as religious scholars have been reported in the city. "Therefore, keeping in view, he [IGP] has requested to impose a ban on the Pillion Riding for a period of one month with immediate effect," read the notification.

While condemning the killing of prominent scholar Maulana Adil Khan in Karachi, Prime Minister Imran Khan
...aka The Great Khan, who ain't the sharpest bulb on the national tree...
has said that for the last three months, India has been attempting to target religious scholars from both Sunni and Shia sects to create sectarian conflict across the country.
