KE takes action against illegal fire hydrants and water mafia – Pakistan

KARACHI: In a continued effort to combat electricity theft and secure its network, K-Electric, in collaboration with law enforcement agencies, has carried out successful operations against illegal fire hydrants and water mafia activities in Jahangirabad and Jalalabad.

During these raids, significant theft of power was detected, particularly in the Jalalabad area, where several illegal fire hydrants were found operating on 95 mm underground cables. The operation resulted in the seizure of 450 kilograms of illegal cables, which were used to tap more than 5 Lakh units of electricity in the last six months.

As part of the ongoing “Kunda Removal Campaign”, K-Electric has also set up facilitation camps to provide consumers with convenient services and support. These initiatives are designed to strengthen the integrity of K-Electric’s network, reduce line losses and ensure the protection of consumer interests.
