Due to misconduct and abuse of power, 15 members of the Islamabad Capital Police force, notably 5-Head Constables and 7-Constables, were fired.

According to details “Sub-Inspector Qasim Zia, Sub-Inspector Talat Mehmood, Assistant Sub-Inspector Zaheer Ahmed, Head Constables Almas Haider, Muhammad Ishaq, Waqas Idrees, Naveed Butter, and Sajid Mehmood” are among the officials who were fired.

“Constables Muhammad Nadeem, Muhammad Imran, Nazim Abbas, Zahid Khan, Ahsan Farooq, Imran Ahmed, and Qazi Azhar” have also been dismissed from their positions as a result of the investigation, he further said.

He added that the authorities had been punished for overstepping their bounds, failure to serve the public, and failing to effectively combat criminal groups. “Those who disobey the values of public service, abuse their authority, or disregard their responsibilities have no place in the police force.”

The official stated that in the event of “unacceptable behavior, corruption, power abuse, or failure to safeguard residents’ lives and property, serious departmental penalties will be implemented”.

He stated that those who performed well would receive rewards. “Every officer and employee must carry out their responsibilities with complete honesty.”

A total of 3 of its own employees were found guilty of bullying a family in the federal capital, and the Islamabad police had already taken some severe measures against them.
