Karachi,November 01: Karachi, Pakistan's financial capital is more in the news for violent crimes rather than financial news.It has been rocked by political and ethnic rivalries,turf wars and target killings in recent times.A wave of violence has followed the August 2010 killing of Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) provincial lawmaker Raza Haider.Over 90 persons have been killed between October 14th and 25th this year.The authorities have failed to take action against those involved in these cold-blooded murders in the name of ethnicity.In Karachi,hundreds of mourner's take to the streets and shout anti-government slogans every other day.To most it seems that Karachi has become totally ungovernable.
