The Inspector General of Sindh Police has ordered an inquiry after a Thatta convoy vehicle broke down during the President’s visit to Thatta, setting up a three-member committee to establish who was responsible.
Who Is on the Committee
The inquiry committee is headed by Additional IG Karachi Azad Khan, with DIG Logistics Zubair Darishk and DIG Finance Tanveer Alam Odho as members. The IGP took notice of the incident and ordered what the notification calls a transparent investigation.
What the Thatta Convoy Vehicle Probe Will Examine
The panel will look into which officers inspected the vehicle and assigned it to duty, whether it had any technical defects beforehand, and its maintenance and repair records. It will also review the budget and spending of the Special Security Unit (SSU), including vehicle maintenance, fuel and the purchase of new vehicles.
Deadline and Next Steps
The committee must identify negligent officers and personnel, recommend departmental action, and propose measures to prevent similar failures in future VIP and VVIP convoys. It has been asked to submit its detailed report within seven days.
