IG orders to install biometric system at CPO in Karachi

Sindh Inspector General of Police Syed Kaleem Imam had ordered in September to ensure the installation of a biometric system at the Central Police Office within 10 days.

The Sindh IG instructed the officials to ensure that officers and youths affiliated with the police department deployed to any security duty were given regular formal briefings regarding their responsibilities as well as information about different units and branches of CPO.

They should also be apprised of the rules and regulations relating to other departments of the provincial government, he added.
