The IGP further said that officers from these ranks are among those who have been martyred. “So far, 887 police officers from different ranks have embraced martyrdom in the line of duty."
In his concluding remarks, he gave clear directives to those officers who were performing their duties for privileges and salary that they should leave the police force. “You must abandon your duties if you are serving for privileges and salary. In the police force, it is eagerness that leads to serve or embrace martyrdom,” said the IG.
