Police Investigation Inspector at Pakistan Police Department
  • Pakistan - Rawalpindi
  • June 2002 to February 2012

As a station commander of a division or section of a police department, I was responsible for assigning work to junior police officers, supervising their work, and enforcing compliance of department policies and procedures, as a police inspector I was conducting inspections to ensure personnel, performance and equipment are in compliance. These inspections include reviews of case records, personnel files and police premises. As a police inspector I was responsible for inspecting for quality standards in appearance, efficiency and conduct, which includes interacting with my subordinates and laboring over the command's records. As a police inspector I was involved preparing reports to higher authorities that detail of my findings related to efficiency, conduct and the condition of the police force. In any kind of emergency situations in the country or my area of responsibilities I was responsible to guide and lead the force and members of the team.

As a Police Inspector, also known as a law enforcement officer, we focus on protecting people and property. Patrol the areas we are assigned, which sometimes include entire jurisdictions, respond to calls, enforce laws, make arrests, issue fines tickets, and occasionally testify in court cases. We often make traffic stops, respond to domestic disturbances, and, at times, we are trained to provide first aid to someone involved in a traffic accident or injured in a domestic dispute until paramedics arrive. Much of my time was divided between patrolling, writing reports, and filling out forms. In fact, In Pakistan police officers also perform the protocol and VIP duties. Other main duties and responsibilities as police inspector I had done were like safety & security of public and properties, crime control and loss prevention, law enforcement, investigations & interrogations, traffic management, prisons Management, legal procedures, police officers training, force & strength management, patrolling, and VIP protocol & protection duties etc.
