An art graduate whose creative power was no less than that of a scientist Ibn Safi holds a unique place among Urdu writers. In the beginning, the critics of literature did not consider him worthy of attention, but then all became captives of his pen. Ibn Safi's pen journey spans 28 years . During this journey, he created about two and a half hundred novels which were published under the name of Jasusy Dunia (Detective World) and Imran Series. In January 1952, the world's first detective novel, Dalair Mujram(The Brave Criminal) , was published, and in August 1955, the first novel in the Imran series, Khaofnak Amarat (The Terrible Building), was published. This continued until his death. In these novels, he invented a new world in which crime was eliminated with the help of new methods and inventions.

They would sometimes set fire to CDs in video and CD shops and sometimes break into massage centers in different sectors of the city without permission, not only torturi...
