ICCPO Dr. Akbar Nasir Khan directed all senior officials for an effective crackdown against the accused involved in criminal activities and to ensure the safety of lives and property of citizens on a priority basis.


The parents are requested to stop their children from getting involved in such activities as a crackdown against kite sellers and flyers had already been accelerated in the city. Special squads had been formed to net the violators while SDPO’s and Incharge Police Stations were also taking part in the operation.
He directed all officials to utilize all available resources to control the kite flying and selling and to net the ban violators and the kite sellers.
The kite flying ban violators were being dealt with an iron hand and no one would be allowed to violate the law and indulge in kite flying and selling.
The use of metal string for kite flying results in the loss of human lives therefore, all-out efforts are made to stop kite flying. The kite flying not only causes power outages due to hitting electric wires. It becomes a threat to human lives as well, while younger people fall from the rooftops and become victims of life-long illness.
Islamabad Capital Police have urged the citizens not to allow their children to violate the kite flying ban imposed by the district administration else strict action in accordance with the law would be taken and the ban violators would be sent behind the bars.
Citizens are urged to cooperate with the police and report any suspicious individuals or activities through the emergency helpline “Pucar-15” or at “ICT-15” mobile application
