| [DAWN] As part of security measures for Muharram, City Police Officer (CPO) Mohammad Faisal Rana on Monday directed police to arrest all suspects who have been booked on charges of sectarian violence and under the National Action Plan (NAP) during the last decade but are still on the lam. He also directed them to ensure daily attendance of all fourth schedulers at the relevant cop shoppes. The directives were issued during two separate meetings the CPO held with the sub-divisional coppers (SDPO) and station house officers (SHO) of the respective police circles, cop shoppes and with all the three divisional superintendents of police (SP) of Rawalpindi. He told the police to obtain surety bonds from miscreants as well as from those having any kind of suspicious or dubious record that they would not create law and order situation. The CPO told the police that if a fourth scheduler did not register their attendance on daily basis at cop shoppe, he should be prosecuted under NAP. He ordered the police to launch a search operation in private hostels and hotels and if they found a person residing illegally, he should be arrested immediately, besides registering a case against the hotel or hostel’s administration. The CPO directed the police to launch an operation against suspects who were still on the lam in cases registered under NAP and on charges of creating sectarian and ethnic disturbance during the last 10 years. |
