This paper reviews the causal relationship between heroin use and criminal
behavior of heroin addicts in Karachi. The findings of the study established that
there is no association of heroin addiction with crime causation. A minority of
heroin addicts indulged in crime to fund their drug habit. The reasons for
indulgence in criminal activity were purely economic. Criminal behavior was
therefore not found associated with heroin use. The paper is an exploratory
study. The universe of the present study was the heroin addict population in the
city of Karachi. Data collection was done through a structured interview
schedule. Collected data has been systematically presented through univariate
and bivariate tables. Data analysis was done using Statistical Package for
Social Sciences (SPSS).Conclusions drawn from the study and remedial
measures are suggested.
