Speaking to the media at his residence after briefing US Consul General William Martin on the overall situation in the city, Wassan (home minister) said the US had offered equipment and other expertise to overcome the situation in the city.
The home minister said the Government of Sindh is yet to accept the offer made by the US.
He said 15 Armoured Personnel Carriers (APC) will arrive by the end of August.
The Sindh government is giving the police five billion rupees to buy new vehicles and equipment. It will buy 40 armoured personnel carriers.
The struggling police force is understaffed and underequipped, given the size of Karachi city and the terrifying spread of crime
