Korangi SSP Ali Raza has formed the anti-riot women force on the directives of Sindh Inspector General of Police (IGP) Sindh Dr Syed Kaleem Imam. As many as 25 women police officers and personnel have been included in the anti-riot women platoon in the first phase for whom refresher and training courses have been initiated. It is also being expected that more women police personnel will be added in the wing in the second phase.
