KARACHI ZOO UNDER THREAT

(Hafiz Muhammad Noman, Karachi)

Recently the city government of Karachi organised an entertainment program for the families of the journalists who were the member of Karachi Press Club. The government carried the families to Karachi Zoo whereas it served special lunch to the journalists and their families. In addition, the government provided especial security to the journalists and their families.

Anyways, a relative of mine, a journalist and member of Karachi Press Club, along with his family visited to the Zoo as well. What he told me about the Zoo amazed me as no noble family could go to the Zoo if they faced the same situation that my relative did. He said no sooner did he enter the Zoo, his steps stopped as he found a strange situation in the Zoo. He said there were various couples who were involved in immoral activities freely whereas they had no fear of the security personnel whether they could catch them.

He further said when he talked to some other journalists concerning the situation, they expressed their concerns saying that this was usual in the Zoo and they had no fear of the security personnel because they paid some money to the security guards as a bribe so that nobody could ask them about their bad deeds. “We have visited Zoo today with our family due to witch these couples are few. In usual days, people are restricted to go to some places in the Zoo as security guards do not allow them,” said some journalists, adding that the couples especially gave the security guards bribe so that nobody could disturb them.

I thought after listening to the situation that there were women and children over there to enjoy the Zoo and when they had found immoral activities there, what would have they thought? It is disgusting that the Zoo is getting a dating point where couples meet and do what they want without any fear. At least a noble family could not visit the Zoo in this situation, unfortunately. The government in this regard must take stern action against the guilty persons to stem immoral activities in Karachi Zoo so that families could easily visit it without any hesitation.
