President KCCI, Agha Shahab Ahmed Khan, and Chairman BMG and former president KCCI, Siraj Kassam Teli, have said that ensuring foolproof security in Karachi is a challenging task as it is the financial and industrial hub of the country with a population of around 22Mn people. While strongly condemning the attack on the Pakistan Stock Exchange, they paid glowing tribute to the private security guards, the policemen and the Rangers for rapidly thwarting the terrorist strike, stopping them from entering the PSX building and effectively exterminating all of the terrorists within minutes, saving the stock exchange from a grave incident which the entire business and industrial community highly appreciated. They further underscored the need to implement police reforms which must focus on thoroughly defining the administrative and operational controls while the capacity building of police department must also be prioritized, and all the recruitments must strictly be done on the basis of merit, and criminologists should be engaged along with the use of latest technologies to analyze and investigate such incidents.
