The Hazara Electric Company (HAZECO) has launched a crackdown on electricity theft in the City-II Sub-Division of Abbottabad, according to the Associated Press of Pakistan.
The operation disconnected dozens of illegal electricity connections and resulted in the confiscation of hundreds of meters of electricity wires along with several illegal meters, the report said.
The crackdown was conducted on the APS/BBK feeder under the supervision of Sub-Divisional Officer (SDO) Raheel, in collaboration with other personnel, according to the report.
Electricity theft remains a persistent challenge for power utilities across Pakistan, contributing to transmission losses that utilities say affect the reliability and cost of the broader power supply.
