PESHAWAR: Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Inspector General (IG) Akhtar Hayat Gandapur has instructed regional police officers (RPOs) to refrain from participating in political activities in response to the PTI-led government’s use of police personnel during the previous protest in Islamabad and the PTI’s calls for protest on November 24.
The RPOs were instructed in a letter by the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa IG to refrain from engaging in any political activities.
After KP Chief Secretary Nadeem Aslam Chaudhry sent a warning letter to the provincial government and police, the development occurred.
It was stated in the letter to the IG, commissioners, provincial secretaries, and police officers that the police and administrative officials should only follow directives from the political leadership that were in line with the constitution.
