Sindh IG transfers SSP Malir for 'misusing' authority

KARACHI: Sindh Police Inspector General (IG) Ghulam Hyder Jamali on Thursday night transferred Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Rao Anwar from Malir, according to a police spokesperson.

The provincial police chief said Rao Anwar “misused” his authority following which he has been transferred from Malir district.

SSP East Peer Mohammad Shah has been given additional charge for the time being, while Rao Anwar has been directed to report to the Central Police Office, the spokesperson added.

The police spokesperson said the IG’s orders came after Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah took serious notice of Rao Anwar’s press conference earlier in the day, in which he leveled serious allegations against Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM).

The SSP had claimed that the MQM has links with Indian spy agency RAW, and that the party sent workers to India to get them trained by RAW and eventually use that training to spread terror in Pakistan.

“The MQM is a terrorist outfit in guise of a political party and should be banned,” the SSP said in a press conference earlier in the day.

Qaim Ali Shah has directed the Sindh IG to enquire into the matter and submit a report within 24 hours.

Everyone wants to get rid of real criminals hence politicizing the operation does no good to the objective of achieving peace in the city where everyone's mandate should be honored.

How unfortunate, that a very senior police officer was transferred on the bidding of the Chief Minister. From the report we gather, that the officer was transferred for the alleged abuse of authority. I would therefore expect the Inspector General to provide evidence of the abuse. If the report published in The Dawn is correct and the police has evidence of the grave charges laid against a major political party, then IG and the government should have complimented the investigating officer and his team, rather than, relieving him from his post. But then this is the way things happen in sin and perhaps in other parts of Pakistan as well

In a democratic and civilzed world these kind of cases are thrown out of court and it is now happening in our country too. Sindh government had for the first time shown maturity to come forward and prevented the attempt to sabotage the working relationship between PPP and MQM. No doubt MQM is a very powrful force in urban Sindh and had even won 19 seats in cantonment elections which I beleive straightly negates the propaganda of foul and fraudulent .I think we are moving through a very dangerous phase in our history and threatening and accusing attitude would not work.

Once the local players are weakened then foreign players will land like when immune system of the body is weak it is easy to destroy it. We do not have to go far see what is happening in middle east. Foreign players are patronizing all the local players . The rulers are supported and the ruled are given advice that help is on the way if you are in trouble .

Transfer is no remedy; he must be sacked like Nekukara for not following the law.

If this is the criteria to transfer SSP Malir, then the entire police department of the country must have been transferred on this base for holding defaming press conferences and press releases against common criminals and non-MQM terrorists. When TTP gained power our political parties and ex-army general compromised to them and no one paid the price other than the common citizens and the law enforcement personnel. Thanks to General Shareef for taking a courageous step of Zarb-e-azb and PMLN to stand behind counter-terrorists operations country wide. We must see our country in a larger picture where we can become Asian Tiger only if we establish internal peace especially after the 46 billion of investment by China.

@baji In good old USA every metropolitan city have their own police department and their direct boss in the Mayer of the city. Plus a New York NY police officer can not be transferred to Buffalo NY city police though both cities are in NY estate.

The state needs to come back with more mature move. Guilty or not guilty should be dealt in a more professional way.

There is no Proof that MQM is Involved in Terrorism, All these are just baseless allegations. I have witnessed 1000 times MQM Workers doing humanitarian work..Without MQM there is no future of Karachi..

The IGP has proved gutless. He should have stood behind his SSP and neither suspended nor transferred him. Instead the IGP succumbed to political pressure. The result is, a DSP has been shot dead by the same people the SSP accused of terrorism. Will the IGP now stand up and take responsibility for the death of DSP and admit that had he shown guts, the terrorists would not have been encouraged and the DSP may still be alive?

@Ali If someone wants to to help Pakistan, first he must perform his duty with honesty. He cought the criminal, its fine, now prove him guilty in the court of law. That's the next step not rh the press conference.

@Dr. Liaqat "Did the SSP say any thing that is not common knowledge?" if political rivals spread misinformation against each other it is understandable but a person of SSP rank cannot become a political rival and cannot give political statements by calling press conferences

@Ali "This is the problem in Pakistan.if someone want to do anything for Pakistan" this is not the job of a public servant in this case an SSp to hold political press conference and make political statement if he wanted to do something he should have gathered gathered prove against the accused and present them in the court that's all he was acting like the member of rival political party as if he is the member of PTI
