Sindh Police Chief Ghulam Nabi Memon chaired a meeting on Thursday at the Central Police Office in Karachi to discuss the use of trackers in police vehicles, along with fuel efficiency and savings.
During the meeting, the DIG of Technical & Transport (T&T) briefed the IGP on the performance of the trackers installed in police vehicles. He highlighted the resulting improvements in fuel affordability and savings. The tracker company has also developed an online application and website for monitoring the vehicles, enabling easy tracking of movement and current locations. The DIG added that if low mileage or lack of reporting is detected, the relevant department is held accountable.
IGP Memon emphasized that the primary objective of using technology under the police’s Technical and Transport Department is to promote fuel efficiency and enhance operational effectiveness. He stressed the need for all relevant in-charges to ensure proper awareness regarding the care and use of trackers. He added that installing these trackers would significantly improve both fuel efficiency and the overall performance of police vehicles.
Memon also called for organizing training sessions for drivers and in-charges to familiarize them with the new tracker features and their importance. Later, IGP Memon presided over a meeting to discuss measures against drug mafias in the Hyderabad, Mirpurkhas, and Shaheed Benazirabad divisions, as well as efforts to arrest proclaimed offenders.
The DIGs briefed the meeting on actions taken against drug mafias in their divisions and the arrest of proclaimed offenders and absconders. Memon directed that details of these individuals and case investigations should be recorded in the police station record management system (PSRMS), which monitors digital footprints. He also urged SSPs to register data of absconding accused online and to strengthen their complaint systems through SDPOs.
IGP Memon instructed the DIGs to update the lists of drug mafia classifications and take stringent measures to ensure the effectiveness of operations against these elements. He emphasized the need to strengthen legal teams and investigate the reasons for the release of accused in drug cases, ensuring that all aspects—case registration, investigation, evidence, and witness management—are carefully monitored. Strict action is to be taken against those involved in the drug mafia nexus.
Earlier, IGP Memon formally inaugurated the Training Directorate at the Central Police Office (CPO). DIG Training Sindh, Faizullah Karejo, briefed on the objectives of the directorate, highlighting the digitization and integration of Sindh Police’s training activities under one roof. He also noted that training and courses will be provided to officers who meet the fitness criteria.
IGP Memon stressed the importance of improving the quality of police training and called for deploying officers with strong reputations and experience to all training centers. Only officers and personnel with full physical fitness and good health will be selected for the courses, and their service records will be reviewed before enrollment.
He also called for the formulation of rules for appointing principals at training centers and suggested comprehensive proposals for enhancing training and curricula across all centers. Memon emphasized that high-quality training would improve field policing and elevate the public image of the police force.
