Commenting on counter strategies against crimes in Karachi, the premier said that the arrested criminals should be brought to justice not within months but weeks.

He also said that the miscreants behind Safoora carnage have been caught and it is hoped that the courts would bring them to justice soon. Safoora incident depicts lack of courage and desperate tactics, he added.
