Karachi Police have issued a warning against celebratory firing on New Year’s Eve, stating that violators will face charges of attempted murder.

Authorities are making announcements through mosques citywide, informing the public about strict measures against aerial firing during New Year celebrations.

Sindh Inspector General Ghulam Nabi Memon announced enhanced patrolling, picketing, and snap-checking in roads, streets, and public places. Violators caught firing into the air will be charged with attempted murder.

Despite previous measures, celebratory firing continues to result in injuries and deaths every New Year’s Eve.

Recently, West Zone Police in Karachi began collecting licensed weapons from citizens to prevent celebratory gunfire.

West Zone Deputy Inspector General of Police Irfan Ali Baloch revealed a new strategy to halt celebratory gunfire, requiring police stations in Karachi’s Central and West districts to collect licensed weapons from residents.

By Monday night, citizens at 31 West Zone police stations had submitted 314 weapons, including 299 pistols, four revolvers, three shotguns, and eight rifles. The campaign to collect weapons will extend until late Tuesday night, with the New Karachi Industrial Area police collecting the highest number, 44 weapons.

Security will be on high alert across Karachi on New Year’s Eve.

DIG South Syed Asad Raza has finalized security plans to ensure public safety and law enforcement during the celebrations.

Authorities will prosecute those involved in aerial firing, hooliganism, harassment, and one-wheeling.

Meanwhile, Karachi Traffic Police have announced road closures leading to Sea View on the night of December 31 to January 1, 2025. They advise Defence Housing Authority (DHA) residents to use alternative routes. Residents of areas with alternative routes can show their original identity cards to minimize travel inconvenience during New Year’s celebrations.
