Chief Justice (CJ) Iftikhar Mohammed Chaudhry remarked that seeing the law and order situation in country, it seems as if the government has miserably failed in delivering its responsibilities.
CJ remarked these while hearing the case of missing persons in Balochistan.
Dismissing the report of Chief Secretary Balochistan on the development in rescue of missing persons, Iftikhar Chaudhry said, as per report, there is no progress seen in situation.
He said the government should take concrete measures for betterment of law and order situation in province, adding that the latter should not be waiting for the time when it becomes impossible to do any good.
“If the killers of Nawab Akhber Bugti had been brought to justice so the situation would not have been as bad as it is now, ” the CJ remarked.
The administration has failed to safeguard the lives and property of people in Balochistan, as it is incumbent upon the state to make sure provision of protection to its citizens.
He said whatever is happening in Karachi is evident of the fact that the situation has gone completely out of control.
“Five innocent foreigners were killed in cold blood but the government took notice against none, ” Iftikhar remarked.
The Kharotabad incident has brought bad name to Pakistan in international community, he said adding that the armed assault on PNS Mehran, naval base in Karachi, is another example to tarnish image of Pakistan.
The provincial government has formed a judicial commission to probe into Kharotabad killing, the apex court was told.
Adjoining the hearing of the case for two weeks, the court directed presentation of commission’s report on Kharotabad incident.
