Punjab IG removed following reports of refusal to work with new Lahore CCPO

Inspector General of Police, Shoaib Dastgir, has reportedly been removed and transferred as the secretary of the Narcotics Control Division by the Punjab government. Dastgir had refused to work under the PTI government over the recent appointment of Umar Sheikh as the Lahore capital city police officer (CCPO) without his consultation, and had asked the chief minister to transfer him to a “suitable location”.
