SINDH is under the rule of criminals. … An operation is continuing in Bagerji forest near Sukkur. … But it has failed to produce any result. The big fish have escaped. … Some time back the Sindh chief minister said there were some black sheep in police ranks. [They] help criminals escape. … This was a big disclosure. If there are black sheep in police ranks, why does the government not take them to task? …

Black sheep are responsible for failure of the Bagerji operation; they informed the criminals before the start of the operation. There are 11 police stations and pickets in the surroundings of this forest. How did the criminals [then] escape? … The situation demands … that the black sheep within the police [be dealt with]. …— (May 25)
