KARACHI: After returning from their Umrah pilgrimage, a couple fell victim to a robbery carried out by three criminals in Karachi. The incident involved robbers dressed in police uniforms targeting the couple outside their residence in Liaquat Abad No. 3.
The robbers, posing as police officers, held the couple at gunpoint and confiscated both local and foreign currency from them. The affected citizen, Arshad Hussain, and his wife had just arrived from Jeddah to Karachi after completing their Umrah.
The incident report was filed by the victim at the Super Market Police Station. Hussain recounted that three individuals, riding in a white Corolla and dressed in police uniforms, stopped next to them.
First, they identified themselves as police officers to check their identification cards and passports. Afterward, they proceeded to snatch a purse from Hussain’s wife. The purse contained 2200 Saudi Riyals, 10 Dirhams, 5 Australian Dollars, and 5000 Pakistani Rupees.
It is suspected that the criminals might have followed the couple from the airport. The police have launched an investigation into the incident, and efforts are being made to gather CCTV camera footage from the vicinity of the crime scene, which could potentially aid in identifying the culprits.
