KARACHI: Jamshoro police have not yet found a clue to a truckload of rice bags, worth Rs6 million, snatched away near Nooriabad despite the passage of a month.
The rice-laden truck was on its way from Punjab to Karachi when it was snatched near the Nooriabad area on December 04, according to the affected trader. The empty vehicle was found in Yousuf Goth the following day. He said the whereabouts of the driver of the truck are also unknown.
The trader lamented the Jamshoro police have failed to trace the looted rice bags weighing 50 tonnes despite the passage of a month’s time. A first information report (FIR) was registered at Nooriabad police station.
The trader said he ran from pillar to post to seek recovery of the looted grain but to no avail, adding he contacted police officials multiple times but they didn’t heed his pleas.
Lately, the Wholesale Association wrote a letter to the Sindh police chief seeking his help in recovery of the looted rice bags.
