QUETTA: A separate division should be set up to monitor VIP movement and provide security in Gwadar and Quetta, said Balochis­tan’s Inspector General Police Ahsan Mehboob.

He was speaking at a meeting with media personnel on Tuesday after assuming charge as the province’s new chief of police. “A separate security plan to handle the security of VIPS and others has been proposed to the provincial government by the security officials,” he said.
