SSP Investigation Captain (retd) Mohammad Dost, while talking to the media, said that Rose was one of the finest police officers in the district. "She used to put additional effort in every case, used to lead by example and also used to take care of their issues by contacting higher officials."
He refuted claims that Rose took the step after her leaves were denied, saying that the department had no clue that Rose was going through such pain otherwise the department would have done something to help her.
