A new police helpline service has been introduced in Karachi under which all emergency services will operate.

Karachi Security DIG Maqsood Memon in an interview said that all private and government ambulance services and fire brigade would work in coordination whereas ambulances, police and other rescue teams would be immediately dispatched whenever an incident needing emergency help will happen.

He also said that the special security unit (SSU) commandos would be deployed across Karachi for curbing street crimes and emergency situations. The DIG security added that SSU commandos would reach ahead of the police at the crime scene.

“The 911 services will be operated from central police office and civic centre whereas consultations are being held to set up a centralised office,” he said.

Memon stated that equipment along with 12 megapixel 5,000 cameras, with face-detection software, would be installed across the city.

“The newly-introduced helpline service is being launched on the pattern of those operational in developed countries like the United States. The aim of the service is to provide better help and services to the citizens,” Memon said.

The senior police officer said that the citizens will get relief from the newly-introduced 911 service and the new police helpline will help to bring the crime rate down.
