Minister of State for Interior Shehryar Khan Afridi on Sunday mistook a Haripur police officer’s daughter as daughter of martyred Superintendent of Police (SP) Tahir Khan Dawar.

“I appreciate the courage of Fatima, daughter of Shaheed SP Tahir Dawar. I reiterate that we are working day & night to unearth the elements behind Shaheed Tahir’s murder. We need support of this family and of the people of Pakistan. Soon, we will reach the culprits IA. Need Prayers,” he expressed on Twitter.


However, twitter users pointed out Afridi’s mistake.

“Sir with all due respect, she is a daughter of Police Inspector posted in Haripur,” wrote one user.


Dawar’s body was discovered in Nangarhar province of Afghanistan earlier this week and returned to Pakistan. He went missing from the federal capital on October 26.

The SP was laid to rest in Peshawar last week.
