The Islamabad Police have reported a significant 20% decline in overall crime rates over the past four months, attributing the success to intensified law enforcement efforts under the leadership of Inspector General of Police (IGP) Syed Ali Nasir Rizvi.
\nAccording to a police spokesperson, robberies, street crimes, vehicle thefts, burglaries, and other serious offenses have all decreased significantly, with 600 fewer criminal cases reported in early 2025 compared to the same period last year.
\nIGP Rizvi stated that a well-coordinated strategy has been implemented, with daily operations targeting criminals, drug traffickers, and their networks.
\nSpecial police teams have been deployed to dismantle drug syndicates, with a focus on shutting down drug dens and arresting suppliers and buyers.
\n\u201cOur mission is to eradicate this menace from society and protect our youth,\u201d said IGP Rizvi. \u201cIslamabad Police will not tolerate those poisoning our future generations.\u201d
\nIn a bid to strengthen community trust, senior officers are now holding daily open courts to address citizens\u2019 concerns directly.
\nIGP Rizvi urged the public to cooperate with law enforcement, emphasizing that a safer society requires collective effort.
\nHe also paid tribute to officers injured in the line of duty, some of whom have been honored with the title of \u2018Ghazi\u2019 for their bravery. \u201cWhen we wear this uniform, we pledge to serve and protect,\u201d he said.
\nThe IGP reaffirmed that protecting lives and property remains the top priority for Islamabad Police. With sustained efforts and public cooperation, the capital aims to become a model for crime-free urban policing.
\n\u201cA peaceful society is possible only when citizens and police work together,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
