City police leadership met under the chairmanship of CPO Syed Khalid Hamdani to assess the law and order situation in Rawalpindi. Senior officers including the SSP Operations, SSP Investigation, divisional SPs, SPs and SDPOs participated in the review to coordinate operational readiness across the district.
The CPO directed that no individual or group will be permitted to take the law into their own hands and that any activity that blocks roads, disrupts traffic or interferes with citizens’ daily lives must not be allowed to continue. Emphasis was placed on ensuring that lawful, peaceful protest remains protected while any violent activity masquerading as protest will face immediate action.
Rawalpindi Police was instructed to maintain a firm stance against those who create disorder or violate the law, with clear orders to deal strictly with offenders. Officers were reminded that protection of life, property and the safety of law enforcement personnel is a top priority and that no attack on citizens, their property or police personnel will be tolerated.
The meeting concluded with a reaffirmation that Rawalpindi Police is prepared and committed to handle any situation that arises and will take necessary measures to preserve public order and safety, the spokesperson of Rawalpindi Police said.
