Malik assures 90 % Unregistered SIMs blocked


Minister for Interior Rehman Malik said on Sunday there were one million unregistered SIMs when he took charge of the ministry out of which 90 percent had been blocked now.

The minister was speaking at the concluding session of the conference on “Gender Discrimination in Media and Capacity Building for Female Journalists” arranged by the National Press Club (NPC).

Rehman Malik urged the citizens to report untraced numbers to control the criminal activities.

He said Pakistan is facing multiple threats, adding that these threats could be countered to national unity. “The suicide attacks not only scare away the foreign investors but also discourage local investors,” the minister said. He said terrorists are the enemies of the society and humanity.

About the drone attacks, Rehman Malik said this issue could be resolved only though diplomatic efforts. He said the government was working to stop the drone attacks as even the F-16 aircraft could not bring down the drones.
