Additional Inspector General of Police (AIG) Nabi Memon, DIG East Saqib Ismail Memon, DIG South Javed Akbar Riaz and DIG West/ Central Asim Qaimkhani stated that people are no more reluctant to register their cases as 75% of the cases are now being reported which is a big achievement and only 25% go unreported. Addl IGP said that as response time was very crucial for efficiently dealing with any law & order situation, therefore the service of Police Helpline 15 has been considerably improved to such a level that policemen now respond to any complaint within five minutes after it has been lodged at the helpline. To improve surveillance, a total of 27,000 cameras have been installed at various locations all over the city while 7,000 more will also be added soon, he said. Additional IGP agreed to regularly hold meetings with KCCI representatives so that Police-KCCI coordination could be improved and he also consented to form a committee comprising representatives from KCCI and Traffic Police Engineering Department so that business community’s proposals for improving the traffic flow at various roads could be discussed and accordingly implemented.
