KARACHI: Twenty-five sacrificial goats worth Rs1.9 million were stolen from Gulistan-i-Jauhar, police said on Monday.<\/p>\n

Malir Cantt Station House Officer (SHO) Agha Abdul Rasheed told Dawn<\/em> that a man had bought 25 goats and housed them at an empty plot in Block 8. The police official said that the man had also hired a watchman to watch the animals.<\/p>\n

However, on Saturday night, around three to four suspects arrived at the location in a Suzuki van and took away all the goats, the SHO said.<\/p>\n

According to SHO Rasheed, the watchman told police that he was awake at the time of the incident, but the suspects tied a cloth over his face and forcibly took away the goats.<\/p>\n

The official said that police had obtained CCTV footage from the area and asked the owner to lodge a first information report (FIR) to initiate legal proceedings.<\/p>\n

However, so far, the owner appeared reluctant to pursue the case, the official said.<\/p>\n

In 2024, a truck containing a consignment of sacrificial goats was hijacked<\/a> by four armed men in Gulistan-i-Jauhar. Police said that the truck carrying the goats was on its way from Hyderabad to Gulistan-i-Jauhar when the driver stopped the vehicle near Kamran Chowrangi to inquire about the address of his destination.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, four suspects riding two motorbikes emerged, held the driver at gunpoint, snatched his cash and cell phone and then took away the truck with the goats on board.<\/p>\n

The victim Abdul Manan told the media that the estimated value of the looted sacrificial animals was around Rs1.5 million.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
