Nisar directs security agencies to secure twin cities
2014-06-22
[DAWN] Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan
...Currently the Interior Minister of Pakistain. He is the senior leader of the Pak Moslem League (N) and a close aide to Nawaz Uncle Fester Sharif. He is noted for his vocal anti-American railing in the National Assembly. However (comma) Khan told the U.S. ambassador that he was in fact pro-American but he and the PML-N would have to be critical of US actions in order to remain publicly credible. Khan cited his wife and children's US citizenship as proof, which means he's lying to one side or the other and probably both. He wears a wig, but you probably guessed that. since hair doesn't grow naturally in that shape or texture...
directed police and security agencies to gear up their resources to fully secure twin cities Rawalpindi-Islamabad and its residents in wake of the Zarb-e-Azb operation against snuffies in North Wazoo.

The minister said this while chairing a meeting on Saturday to review the security situation of Rawalpindi and Islamabad.

The meeting was attended by Secretary Interior, NC National Counter-Terrorism Authority (Nacta), Director General Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), Chief Commissioner Islamabad, Commissioner Rawalpindi, Inspector General (IG) Islamabad police, Regional Police Officer (RPO) and City Police Officer (CPO) Rawalpindi and Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Islamabad.

He said that sensitivity of the situation demanded extra security measures and it was incumbent on security agencies to fully secure public places and strategically important buildings.

Nisar directed police high ups to review the overall security of the federal capital with particular reference to entry and exit points and identification of sensitive buildings in order to adopt security measures accordingly.

The minister stressed that entry and exit points of both cities be put on high alert and areas surrounding the federal capital and Rawalpindi be thoroughly searched, adding that they should be cleared of any unlawful elements.

He said that joint patrolling teams of Rangers and police had given a sense of security to the residents of Islamabad and directed them to strategise this exercise to get optimum use.

Chaudhry Nisar also added that all routes must be highly protected and added that special attention must be paid to unconventional routes, including jeep-able and pedestrian routes.
