Karachi’s Safe City project has carried out its first successful operation, resulting in the arrest of a driver using a vehicle with a fake registration number.
The arrest was made after the newly activated Safe City cameras detected the suspicious vehicle within the jurisdiction of Arambagh police station.
The camera system flagged the vehicle for having a fake number plate, leading to swift action by the police and registration of a case at the concerned station.
Director General of Safe City, Asif Ijaz Sheikh, confirmed that this was the first official action initiated by the Karachi Safe City Authority.
He stated that the move followed a meeting chaired by Sindh Chief Minister and Interior Minister, where clear directives were issued to begin operations using the camera system.
The Chief Minister also ordered legal action and instructed the Inspector General of Sindh Police and DG Safe City to ensure full enforcement. He further directed that the already-installed surveillance cameras be made fully operational and used to closely monitor criminal activity.
