ISLAMABAD: IGP Islamabad Qazi Jameel-ur-Rehman on Wednesday visited Red Zone to review the security arrangements. He examined all the checkpoints leading to the Red Zone and issued necessary directions.

SSP Operations, Dr Syed Mustafa Tanvir apprised the IGP over inspection procedure and other security measures. Qazi Jamil-ur-Rehman directed the deployed staff to stay alert during duty hours as Red Zone was a sensitive area. He asked the personnel to ensure foolproof security of important buildings, office and embassies present at the area. All the officers and Jawans on duty must wear bulletproof jackets, helmets and surgical masks to avoid any untoward situation, he added. “No negligence will be tolerated in that regard”, IGP strictly warned.
