To everyone surprise, the top cop of Punjab police hugged the constable and expressed his best wishes for early recovery.
Furthermore, IG Dr. Usman Anwar also discussed the treatment of constable Shahid with psychologist Dr Asad, and deplored the humiliation linked with the viral clip.
Good gesture by IG Punjab. Instead of personal vendetta, he ended up giving “Teri ***” police constable a hug. Now I want to hear what was his heart saying… 😅pic.twitter.com/JixVAa47r2

He said that by ordering a bipolar disorder is a curable disease, instead of making such a patient a part of the memes, pray for his recovery. IGP however pinned hope on his full recovery, saying Shahid Zohaib is under the supervision of proficient psychologists.
Dr Usman also turned down the claims on social media that a police constable is being kept in a lockup, saying it is false and contrary to the facts.
