Punjab Inspector General (IG) of police Faisal Shahkar has decided to step down from his office, citing personal reasons.
In a letter to the federal government, the Punjab IG Faisal Shahkar said he cannot continue discharging his duties due to personal reasons.
It may be noted that Pakistan Muslim League-Q (PML-Q) leader Moonis Elahi, son of Punjab Chief Minister Pervaiz Ealhi, held an important meeting with PTI Chairman Imran Khan at Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital, Lahore.
During the meeting, matters pertaining to the registration of FIR following an attack on Imran Khan and others issues came under discussion.
According to reports, the former prime minister also directed Moonis Elahi to remove Inspector General (IG) Punjab Faisal Shahkar from his post.
Moonis Elahi accepted Imran Khan’s demand and assured him of the removal of IG Punjab Faisal Shahkar.
Earlier, the federal government suspended the Capital City Police Officer (CCPO) Lahore Ghulam Muhammad Dogar, after Governor’s House came under attack.
