Billboard falls on Karachi motorcyclists near Metropole

Karachi : (HRNW) Two motorcyclists were injured on Thursday after a billboard collapsed on them near Metropole Chowrangi during the monsoon spell that hit Karachi.

The injured people included a 65-year-old man who sustained several injuries and was immediately shifted to a hospital, according to a traffic police officer present at the accident site.

The other man suffered minor scratches and left after receiving basic first-aid, the officer added. The men were on a motorbike.

Billboards have been installed on all major roads of Karachi despite orders by the Supreme Court. In 2018, the court had passed an order to remove billboards from all public properties across the city. The ban is also applicable in cantonment areas, on the land of government offices, and in housing societies.
