DERA ISMAIL KHAN: Under the directives of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Inspector General of Police Zulfiqar Hameed, a high-level meeting was held at the Regional Police Office (RPO) Dera Ismail Khan to review the law and order situation across all four districts of the Dera Range.
The meeting was chaired by RPO Dera Syed Ashfaq Anwar. The meeting was attended in person by DPO Dera Sahibzada Sajjad Ahmed, DPO Tank Abdul Samad, and SP CTD Region One Iftikhar Ali Shah. DPOs South Waziristan Upper Arshad Khan, South Waziristan Lower Tahir Shah, SP CTD Region Two Gul Raof, and DSP Special Branch Ghulam Murtaza joined via video link.
Participants briefed the RPO on the law and order conditions in their districts, ongoing operations, terrorism-related investigations, and security measures. Addressing the meeting, RPO Syed Ashfaq Anwar directed that operations against terrorists and their facilitators be intensified across all districts of the Dera Region.
The RPO emphasised that all terrorism-related cases should be investigated thoroughly, transparently, and on merit, with the accused brought to justice without delay. He also instructed the regular use of drone and quadcopter technology during operations, enforcement of bulletproof jackets and helmets for personnel on duty, and continuous variation of patrolling routines to prevent predictability.
RPO Anwar further ordered immediate action against illegal Afghan nationals and stressed the need for enhanced inter-district coordination to secure foreign residents. He called for improvement in the security, fortification, and infrastructure of all police stations and check posts.
At the conclusion of the meeting, RPO Dera and all participants reaffirmed their commitment to fully utilise available resources and strategies to protect lives and property, and to maintain peace and order throughout the Dera Region.
