Seaview is one of the places in Karachi where people go to enjoy themselves but what if it has become a threat to their lives?
People go there and throw garbage in the sea, not knowing what problems they are causing.
Shaneira Akram, wife of renowned cricketer Wasim Akram has taken to social media to reveal what mayhem clifton beach is facing right now.
I have walked on Clifton beach everyday for the last 4 years and I have never been scared until today. This beach needs to be shut down now

Karachi beach at this moment is a biohazard! We deserve better than this #CliftonBeachEmergency
She wants media to take notice at this disorganization.
I have found over 4 dozen open syringes in the last 10 minutes. This is a biohazard and our beach needs to be closed down until the proper authorities can guarantee the people of Karachi are safe. This has gone on long enough, people’s lives are at risk

News channels need to get down to the beach between chunky monkey and salt and pepper now before these rusty old tractors dig this medical waste deeper in to the sand!

Beach should be closed down for the public until the matter is resolved, Shaneira suggested.
Why is the beach still open? For me,This is not a blame game this is a “we need to act now”problem & close the beach. I don’t want to be in this position but I have no choice peoples lives are at stake and I was faced with a moral obligation. People needed to know about this

However, she warned people to not go cleaning after themselves. The medical waste is extremely hazardous and unsafe. Therefore, Shaniera wants professionals to handle this situation.
DO NOT go to the beach and try to clean it, this is biohazardous waste and needs to be a restricted area and cleaned by professionals. The sea and beach needs to be declared unsafe for everyone immediately

This problem is a great matter of concern, it is a danger to many lives and it must be settled.
