The internal investigation into the unauthorized deployment of female police officers to the Defence area has reached a critical conclusion: the officers were dispatched without the knowledge or orders of SSP South, Fida Janwari.
The inquiry, launched following reports of procedural lapses in the district’s personnel management, identified a significant breakdown in the chain of command. Investigators found that the officers in question were moved to the Defence station despite the SSP’s explicit lack of authorization for such a transfer.
This development highlights a deeper issue regarding command and control within the district’s policing structure. When personnel are deployed without the signature or oversight of the district head, it creates a vacuum of accountability. It also raises questions about who exactly issued the directives that bypassed the SSP’s office.
SSP Janwari had previously maintained that he was unaware of the specific deployment order, a claim the inquiry has now validated. The findings suggest that middle-management officers or administrative staff may have circumvented established protocols to facilitate the move.
For the officers involved, the situation remains precarious. They were essentially operating outside the recognized deployment framework, which complicates their professional standing and legal authority while on duty in the Defence area.
The report has been forwarded to senior command for disciplinary review. While the inquiry identifies the *how* of the unauthorized deployment, the *why*—and the specific individuals responsible for bypassing the SSP—remains the focus of the next phase of the investigation.
Whether this was a simple administrative oversight or a deliberate attempt to undermine district leadership will dictate the severity of the upcoming departmental actions. For now, the findings confirm that the standard operating procedure for personnel deployment was ignored, leaving the department to contend with a significant breach of protocol.
