As many as 73 policemen at 43 police stations across Karachi have been suspended for being part of special police parties and performing duties in plainclothes.

The suspended cops — three sub-inspectors, nine assistant sub-inspectors, 15 head constables and 46 constables – have been ordered to report to the Special Security Unit.

The suspension orders have come after Karachi’s acting additional inspector general of police, Ghulam Nabi Memon, directed the senior superintendents of police, who are the police chiefs of their respective districts, to ban special police parties and personnel in plainclothes and also remove station house officers (SHOs) with a bad record.

The decision to ban police personnel in plainclothers has been taken in the aftermath of the recent killing of a young student in a fake encounter in the Orangi Town area of the city.

The Karachi police chief has asked the entire district SSPs to submit certificates that no special party or plainclothes personnel are operating in their districts.

According to the order, the SSPs should also remove all SHOs having a bad character from police stations.

On the night of December 6, a 16-year-old boy, Arsalan, was shot dead and his friend wounded by a police team in a fake police encounter in Orangi Town.
