The second of a five part series. On an average day in Karachi eight to ten cars are stolen, usually at gunpoint and often to order. Inspectors Nadir and Wasim have captured four members of a gang and are convinced that the gang is much larger, but they have limited time to gather information and concrete evidence if they are to catch the bigger fish.

police precinct of Karachi, Pakistan. Karachi has seen an upsurge in
violent crime, reflecting Pakistan's increasing economic and political
decline. Law enforcement in Pakistan is unable to prevail where
corruption, desperate poverty, and authoritarian tradition are so
intertwined.
