THE police have failed to arrest the criminal who has wounded with a knife about 11 women in Gulistan-i-Jauhar and Gulshan-i-Iqbal, Karachi.

The women around the area are terrified and hesitate to leave their homes. The attendance of female staff is gradually decreasing at workplaces and in educational institutes.

Is it such a difficult job? We do not even know if this crime is being committed by just one person or group.

It seems the criminal is among us and enjoys TV reports about his crime.
