Newly deputed City Police Officer (CPO) Mansoor ul Haq Rana has said that the process of registration of the First Information Report (FIR) would be eased to assess and abolish crimes in the city. While talking to journalists in an introductory meeting here on Tuesday, he assured that action would be initiated against the officials who would not cooperate with citizens for the registration of FIRs. “Registration of FIR is the right of citizens,” the CPO maintained.
He said that he would hold online open courts every Saturday for four hours to know the problems facing the people. The citizens can inform about their issues, pertaining to law and order. Similarly, SSP, SPs, and other officers would be tasked to ensure their presence in offices to resolve public grievances, he informed.
“There is also zero tolerance against extortion mafias,” Mansoor vowed and added that extortionists would be dealt with strictly. Similarly, in cases of abduction for ransom, modern technology will be employed to track the culprits and ensure timely punishment, he stressed. To a query about the recovery of looted items, the CPO stated that the police were basically a crime-fighting organization.
