Sindh Police Tighten Eid Security Across Province
Officials say the measures aim to prevent a rise in street crime through intelligence-led operations, expanded patrols, checkpoints, community coordination, and heatwave preparedness.
Overview
- IGP Javed Alam Odho chaired a high-level meeting at the Central Police Office that directed all police units to tighten security for Eidul Azha and step up intelligence sharing.
- Police were ordered to accelerate intelligence-led operations and conduct intensified combing against street criminals in coordination with Rangers, CTD, Safe City Authority and specialised units.
- Tactical steps include more patrols, snap checks, pickets and checkpoints at district roads, highways and entry and exit points to disrupt criminal movement.
- Officers were told to enforce a strict zero-tolerance policy toward criminal elements and to ensure visible field presence to protect lives and property during holiday gatherings.
- The order also asks district police to work with local communities and plan for possible heatwave conditions, reflecting how Eid security typically requires multi-agency coordination and local outreach.
