KARACHI:

Sindh IG Riffat Mukhtar Raja toured the Sindh Police Museum, located at the Police Headquarters District South. This unique establishment portrays the evolution of Sindh Police since its inception in 1843 until the present day.

Former IG Saud Mirza, the museum curator said the museum's focal point is the emergence of Sindh Police in 1843 under Sir Charles Napier's model, which revolutionised policing by dissociating it from the military and influencing similar formations across British India.

Initially comprising 2,400 personnel it was structured into Mounted Police, Urban Police, and Rural Police divisions.
