PUNJAB INFORMATION OF TEMPORARY RESIDENTS ORDINANCE 2015 is good step to check and control illegal immigrants and other law offender often roost in hired places. Similar Ordinance is more demanding in Sindh where there is a great influx of people trading in illegal arms and narcotics and hide in katchi abadis on rented hideouts.

AoA: The important thing in application of Law. The Law states under section 11 ” If a person knowingly contravenes..”, which is still unfamiliar to common public.
I had to stay for a job purpose in a remote area. i rented a house. After few days police raided my house and imprisoned my 70 years old father with thieves and criminals.
We were not issued any warning and police filed the case under this section.
when i argued, they clearly and openly demanded bribery.
Yes i accept that this Law is for identifying terrorists. But its applications are going being wrong as PP is totally using it for earning money and annoying citizens.
