Islamabad:Three Zonal police commanders including SP (Rural Zone), SP (City Zone) and SP (Saddar) held ‘Khuli Kachehri’ (open court) at their respective police stations, a police spokesman said.
The open courts were attended by citizens and senior police officials. The open courts are being held across the city to ensure the early redressal of public complaints, he added.

The zonal SPs issued orders on the spot to address the issues of the participants and assured them that their suggestions will be taken into account.
They highlighted that police were determined to resolve the issues faced by the citizens. However, the open courts were helpful in maintaining direct relationships with the public. Zonal SPs asserted that better strategy on part of the police led to reduction in crime in the city. Islamabad Police are taking steps to control crime further.
They asked the participants to cooperate with the police in controlling the crime in the city. Islamabad Police also launched an effective crackdown against those involved in drug peddling, land grabbing and criminal activities in their areas.
They urged the citizens to check the activities of the people in their surroundings and inform the police in case of observing the suspicious activities. They added that effective policing is only possible through cooperation of the public and trust between them would be ensured through resolving their problems at their door steps. Any complainant can approach them for redressal of the issues.
