He said that It was a political issue and a heinous incident of target killing but some elements were attempting to portray it as an ethnically motivated hate crime. He said that Sindh government was using police force for achievement of personal goals and police has been politicized and it was unable to apprehend even well identified murderers. Haleem Adil Shaikh said that PPP government had ransacked Sindh and in a bid to hide their failure, bad governance and corruption Syed Murad Ali Shah was propagating hatred in the province by playing Sindh card as he was terming every move and action by federal government as an attack on Sindh.

 He also said that Sindh was land of peace loving Sufis and its people were patriotic, while hatred and ethnically divisive sentiments did not exist in Sindh but Murad Ali Shah was deteriorating the law and order by fanning the linguistic differences. Irresponsible statements and divisive narrative of Murad Ali Shah is more dangerous than seven points of Sheikh Mujeeb, he said and added that it does not represent vision of Shaheed Benazir Bhutto and policy of her party.

Haleem Adil said that Murad Shah visited the area on Monday where a sad incident of terrorism took place but he did not come to condole with the victim family nor the Shah bothered to condole with the family of murdered Fahmida Sial. Haleem Adil Shaikh appealed Chief Justice of Pakistan to take notice of the inhuman crimes and also demanded that culprits involved in heinous crimes of murders be brought to book at the earliest. The Central Vice President Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf and Leader of the Opposition in Sindh, Haleem Adil Sheikh  said that PTI staged a protest demonstration in front of IG Police office,  while voice was raised against atrocities being carried out in Larkana and killing of innocent people, Haleem added and said adding that he brought message of Imran Khan to the people of Kambar-Shahdadkot district.

Earlier, Haleem Adil Sheikh offered condolence to bereaved family and offered fateha at the grave of deceased Sakhawat Rajput. He also visited the site of the murder.

Later, The Central Vice President Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf and Leader of the Opposition in Sindh, Haleem Adil Sheikh while addressing a press conference at Insaf House Larkana demanded to depute Rangers across the province like Karachi to control the rising crime and for maintaining law and order in Sindh. 

 

He said that PPP Sindh government was fanning the fire of hatred in the province while police was made ineffective and police officers were indulged in criminal activities. He said that Rana Sakhawat Rajput was murdered in broad daylight while two poor farm workers were killed on October 5 in the name of ethnic differences. A train was ambushed in Kot Laloo while attacks were carried out on Rangers, he added. 

Haleem Adil Sheikh said that Murad Ali Shah was sidelining Asif and Bilawal Zardari and trying to become Altaf Hussain of Sindh to prolong his tenure by playing Sindh card and ethnic card. Officers were transferred from all the provinces of Pakistan as per rotation policy but Murad Ali Shah challenged the move and announced to form a separate police force in Sindh, he noted. 

Haleem Adil said that dead body of another girl medical student Nosheen Kazmi was found in the Hostel of the Chandka Medical College Larkana after Nimarta but no action was taken against the college administration and Vice Chancellor Anila Attaur Rehman was still on the post. Family of Nousheen Sah did not believe that incident was a suicide case and demanding free and fair probe into the incident, he said. 

Haleem said that PPP through clear violation of article 140-A of the constitution has disfigured the local government system by recent amendments in the law that would obstruct a common political worker from attaining the position of chairman of any LG body and sons of influential lords could be launched on the positions.
