Sub-inspector suspended over roaming around shirtless in Rawalpindi police station

Another officer can also be seen in viral video wearing plain clothes

RAWALPINDI: Despite the Punjab Police's claims of having ingrained professionalism in its staffers, a video went viral on Sunday of a shirtless sub-inspector in a Rawalpindi police station.

In the footage another officer can be seen in plain clothes as well.

The sub-inspector, identified as Muhammad Hayat, was seen wearing the skimpy attire in the presence of women who had come to file complaints.

The officer listens to the sub-inspector while giving him instructions.

After the video began doing the rounds on social media, Rawalpindi CPO Mohammad Faisal Rana took action by suspending the pair.
