Almost at the end of every month, the Islamabad Police in order to fill the blank papers of files pretend to improve monthly performance report by impounding vehicles.
Same happened at the end of the second month of 2017. The police booked hundreds of motorbikes, cars and detained 90 suspects.
Islamabad police on Thursday alone impounded 475 bikes and 24 vehicles at various police stations during checking in the city and from check posts which were driven without documents.
Curiously, the police have a habit to book the pedestrians, drivers of motorbikes and cars, calling them suspects and then, all of them get bail the very next day as nothing is found against them. It is pertinent to mention here that most of the vehicles impounded during the operation, are released the very next day.
