NAUNDERO: Costly coils of the Pole Mounted Transformer (PMT) were stolen from the Bhutto Estate lands tube-well rendering it useless near here on Tuesday.

Unknown armed thieves at the very outset brought down the PMT and then threw its oil out after which they stole costly coils. Ketty Mumtaz Police Station authorities were informed accordingly who arrived, inspected the site and SHO Noor Ahmed Mugheri confirmed to reporters that coils have been stolen from the tube well PMT by unknown thieves. He later claimed that the relevant coils have been recovered but when asked why the thieves have not been arrested and why no FIR has so far been registered he remained mum.

It must be mentioned here that this is the fourth time that coils have been stolen by thieves from the lands of Pakistan’s foreign minister and PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari which shows that lawlessness is rampant in the rural and riverine areas of Larkana district.

In another incident, 6 acre wheat produce harvested earlier was burnt by unknown thieves which belonged to Zulfiqar Junior son of Mir Murtaza Bhutto which is located within the limits of the same Ketty Mumtaz police station.

SHO Mugheri called for sniffing dogs to follow the footprints which led to Bhambho Shaikh village located in the riverine area from where one person was arrested. No FIR was registered till the filing of this report.
