HYDERABAD:
The Hyderabad Police have expressed inability to implement the Sindh High Court s (SHC s) order for preventing and taking action against the recurrence of encroachments on government lands recovered during operations over the last two months.
At the hearing of a case pertaining to encroachments, SSP Abdul Salam Shaikh cited before the Hyderabad circuit on Tuesday the shortage of personnel and their preoccupation with law and order, guard duties and traffic policing.
Last month, the SHC had ordered that the SHO of the relevant police station, besides the local government department s staff, would be booked in FIRs if the recurrence of encroachments occurred.

Principal implicated in Sindh AG’s report which finds irregularities over Rs56m
HYDERABAD:
When management control of the financially ailing and academically subpar Public School Hyderabad (PSH), city’s largest government school, was handed over to Sukkur IBA University (SIBAU) two years ago people expected overarching reforms. However, irregularities in financial management, as pointed out in the audit report 2019-20 of Director General Audit Sindh, appear to be dashing such hopes.
The audit, carried out from November 19 to November 24, 2020 by a team headed by Abdul Hamid Siddiqui, has unearthed Rs56.37 million procurement related irregularities as detailed in the 18 audit paragraphs. From releasing advance payments to his staff and himself to making purchases without tender, principal Imran Ahmed Larik - who was appointed by SIBAU and who also wields the power of drawing and disbursing officer (DDO) - has been primarily implicated in the report.
