Islamabad: The Islamabad police has initiated a proactive campaign dubbed “Knock the Door,” targeting the registration of household workers and tenants with the aim of enhancing safety measures and curbing criminal activities, a news source reported on April 15.
According to a police public relations officer, officers affiliated with the Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) of Islamabad conducted a thorough data collection exercise, encompassing 242 house servants across 520 residences within the jurisdiction areas of Khanna and Bani Gala police stations.
This registration initiative serves as a pivotal component of broader efforts to uphold law and order in the capital city, with a particular focus on identifying potentially risky individuals through the gathering of information on tenants and domestic workers. The overarching goal is to mitigate the likelihood of theft and other criminal incidents perpetrated by individuals masquerading as ordinary citizens.
During the course of the campaign, police teams traversed various neighborhoods to compile pertinent data and engage with residents regarding any prevailing challenges. Additionally, citizens were urged to exercise caution and verify the identity of individuals collecting data while in plain clothes.
The significance of registering tenants and employees was underscored by the potential risks they might pose to public safety, particularly in instances of involvement in theft and robbery.
