KARACHI: Sindh Inspector General of Police A.D.Khwaja on Friday, during his visit to IDEAS-2016 defence exhibition, said the local defence production companies were capable enough to meet the emerging requirements of the police to fight terrorism and other crimes.

He said IDEAS-2016 was more successful than the earlier eight IDEAS exhibitions. It has proved that Karachi is a peaceful city.
