Plan to control aerial firing on Chand Raat, Eid chalked out

Peshawar

To control menace of aerial firing on Chand Raat and Eidul Fitre, the City police have devised a comprehensive plan with directions to all SDPOs and SHOs to come hard against elements involved in this social scourge. As per the security plan, the concerned Sub Divisional Police Officers (SDPOs) and SHOs would be held responsible in case of loss of lives and properties due to aerial firing on Chand Raat and Eid, police officials told APP on Monday.
As many as 3000 police personnel would perform duties in shifts during Eid days in the provincial capital and would be assisted by regular police, women police, elite force and other law enforcement agencies in case of any untoward incidents. Women police and plain clothes police personnel have been positioned to monitor the movement of unwanted elements and check aerial firing in different bazaars, markets and public places in Peshawar.
He said close circuit cameras have been installed in important places and locations for identification of elements involved in aerial firing to take strict actions against violators. The official sought the cooperation of media, academicians, Ulema and civil society for awareness and education of masses against aerial firing.
He said Islam was a religion of peace and brotherhood whereas aerial firing was against teachings of Islam as it could result in loss of precious human lives besides spreading fear among people.—APP
