KARACHI: Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah has decided to establish police facilitation centres in every district of Sindh for people to file complaints of non-cognisable offences.

These centres will be different from police stations in terms of their structure, environment and way of dealing with the public.

He took the decision while presiding over a meeting held at CM House on Sunday.

The meeting was attended by law adviser Murtaza Wahab, Sindh IG AD Khwaja, principal secretary to the CM Naveed Kamran Baloch, additional chief secretary (development) Muhammad Waseem, finance secretary Hassan Naqvi and architect Murli Dharan.

The IG, briefing the meeting, said that he had worked out a plan to establish police facilitation centres in all the districts of the province, where people will file their complaints or requests.

He claimed that complaints regarding lost documents, domestic violence and missing children, among others, will be filed at the centres.

The first centre will be established at the additional land for stables at Darakhsan police station in Karachi.
