The people who recently launched attacks on minorities are enemies of the state, said DMP Commissioner Benazir Ahmed.
“The state has no use for those people who launched attacks on their fellow citizens and committed vandalism. They are enemies of the country,” he said while addressing a grand rally of community policing and citizens’ assembly at Rajarbagh police lines as chief guest yesterday.
“Because of these enemies of the state, the police force has lost 18 valuable lives in the last couple of months while 2,800 police personnel were injured and 300 others lost limbs.”
Urging citizens to stand beside the law enforcers, Benazir said the police and general population they could bring the criminals to book if they worked together.
He said the country was passing through a critical political movement and “We will only be able to get rid of this problem if the police and the people work jointly. We should remain aware so that such atmosphere does not happen in the country again.”
The DMP commissioner urged the youths of the city to work together with the community police to combat crimes.
