KP police launch plan to improve quality of investigation

PESHAWAR: KP Inspector General of Police Sanaullah Abbasi formally launched a comprehensive plan to improve the quality of investigations in the criminal cases.

Speaking at an event at the Police School of Investigation Hayatabad in Peshawar, the police chief said improving service delivery, particularly in investigations, is a key priority for the KP Police and is in line with the provincial

government’s commitment to reform the justice system. Keeping in view the systemic weaknesses in conducting effective and efficient investigations mostly as a result of weaknesses in crime scene preservation and evidence collection, the use of scientific evidence, supervision of investigations, and lack of reliance on modern technologies, the Justice System Support Programme is providing technical assistance to KP Police to overcome these challenges.
