KARACHI:
There was a major reshuffle in the Sindh police on Friday as Karachi got a new police chief and two operational deputy inspectors general (DIGs).
The DIGs of Sukkur, Larkana, Hyderabad and Mirpurkhas were also replaced. The notifications issued Friday gave no reason for the immediate transfers.
Sources privy to the matter told The Express Tribune that the provincial government has ordered wide scale transfers and postings in Sindh police. More reorganisation in the department is expected before the end of assemblies and before the sitting ministers lose their executive powers.
