Chaos at Karachi rehab center as 150 storm facility, 117 escape

(Web Desk): A dramatic incident occurred at a drug rehabilitation center in Karachi’s Orangi Town, where a group of 150 people stormed the facility. The attackers opened fire, caused property damage, and helped 117 patients under treatment escape.

The incident spread panic in the area, and local residents have made serious allegations against the center. They claim that drugs are being sold under the guise of rehabilitation and that those supposedly receiving treatment are actually involved in thefts in nearby homes.

Meanwhile, Sindh Interior Minister Ziaul Hassan Lanjar took immediate notice of the incident and instructed the SSP West to arrest those involved as soon as possible.

Police have launched an investigation into the incident and begun operations to locate the escaped individuals.
