Inspector General of the Islamabad Police(IGP) Tariq Masood Yaseen has appreciated the security personnel and officers for ensuring elaborate security arrangements in the city during Eidul Fitr to avoid any untoward incident.

The Islamabad Police, he said, would not forget its 39 martyrs who sacrificed their lives for protection of lives and property of citizens, saying the department would take care of their families and would support them through any hard times.
The IGP also directed his staff to send Eid presents to the families of martyred personnel.
