The Lahore Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI)'s office-bearers have expressed deep concern over broad daylight dacoity in Karachi wherein a 40-feet container loaded with auto-parts of M/s Badami Bagh Motors, which was on its way to Lahore, was looted near Nooriabad.
The LCCI President Shahzad Ali Malik, Senior Vice President Sheikh Mohammad Arshad and Vice President Sohail Azhar in their joint statement issued on Tuesday said that at a time when the government was striving for attracting foreign investment and encouraging local businesses, the deteriorating law and order situation is putting a reverse gear to all its efforts.
They said that the business community plays an important role in running the affairs of the country and the government should take special steps to protect the businessmen from any such incident. They said that dacoity will not only badly affect the business transactions between Karachi and Lahore but will also force the businessmen of the upcountry to close down their businesses with Sindh.
