PESHAWAR: The Chief Capital Police Officer, Dr Mian Saeed Ahmed, has launched an inquiry against three Station House Officers (SHOs) of various police stations of the city over allegations of financial corruption.
During an extensive meeting aimed at addressing the rising crime rates in the provincial capital, Dr Mian Saeed Ahmed ordered the three SHOs to report to the line. The officers from Phandu, Pakhta, and Sharqi police stations have been removed from their posts due to these allegations and poor performance.
Reliable sources indicated that it was revealed during the meeting that some members of the encroachment mafia had fled the country during an operation. A plan was devised to facilitate their return, allowing them to face legal consequences in court.
Dr Mian Saeed emphasised that there is no place for criminals and the encroachment mafia in Peshawar, asserting that these individuals will be severely punished as a deterrent to others.
The five-hour meeting focused on strategies for controlling crime in the area.
