SUKKUR: Inspector General Sindh Police AD Khowaja on Monday vowed to bring improvement in the police department with the cooperation of the Sindh government.

Speaking to reporters, AD Khowaja said it was not possible for any police chief to operate without the support of the provincial government.

“IG is part of Sindh government. We have full backing of the Sindh government, that is why we are able to operate,” he said.

The IG Police further pointed out that the powers of his position are set by the Sindh High Court.

“I want to honestly give my 100%, will bring improvement in the [police] department with the cooperation of the [Sindh] government.”

Khowaja said the police force will ensure strict security arrangements for the month of Muharram.

Last week, Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah had said he was not disappointed with the verdict in AD Khowaja’s case, according to which the Sindh High Court had dismissed the provincial government’s order to remove Khowaja as Sindh Police’s top official.
