Sindh Inspector General (IG) of Police Ghulam Nabi Memon has reportedly formed a committee to investigate allegations of misuse of authority against Tando Allahyar Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Farooq Bajrani.
The committee includes Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) Additional IG Imran Yaqoob Minhas, Licence and Traffic DIG Tanveer Alam Odho and Welfare ADIG Faisal Abdullah Chachar.
The committee will reportedly investigate allegations against Bajrani of patronising organized crime including drug peddlers and those dealing in banned products like gutka.
A team led by Hyderabad DIG Pir Muhammad Shah had raided a gutka factory in Tando Allahyar last month. They had seized contraband worth millions and arrested six people.
Following the raid, the Tando Allahyar SSP was removed from his post. The committee will investigate the SSP's links to criminals and those dealing in gutkas and will submit a report to the IG.
The Hyderabad DIG had led another raid, at a factory in Tando Mohammad Khan last month, after which Tando Mohammad Khan SSP Abdullah Memon was removed from the post and an investigation was initiated against him.
