Armed thieves snatch minced meat on gunpoint in Karachi

KARACHI: In an unusual incident that has left many in a daze, two armed dacoits snatched 10 kilograms of minced meat from a butcher in Karachi’s Liaquatabad area. 

What’s even more surprising is that the thieves, who were armed and wearing masks, didn’t demand or take any of the butcher’s valuable belongings, including his mobile phone and cash.

According to the victim, it happened early in the morning when he was transporting the minced meat and other items to his shop on a cart. The two armed men stopped him at gunpoint and demanded that he hand over the minced meat.

Additionally, the thieves threatened to shoot the butcher if he informed anyone about the incident. The butcher, visibly shaken by the incident, told the media that he was shocked when the dacoits did not touch his mobile phone or cash, which they could have easily taken.

They took only the minced meat, valued at around Rs12,000, as the average price of beef mince in Karachi is Rs1,200 per kilogram.

The incident raised many questions as to what could motivate the thieves to steal the minced meat only. Yet, the police have not had a word about the whole incident, and it has been proven to be a really weird and strange case of theft.
