Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi chaired a high-level meeting in Islamabad where he announced strict measures to combat electricity and gas theft across the country.
Special teams have been formed to carry out crackdown operations and the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has been tasked with taking legal action against those involved in such criminal activities.
During the meeting, Minister Naqvi emphasized the need for swift and decisive action against those responsible for electricity and gas theft.
He was also presented with a report detailing the FIA about the Greek boat accident. Minister Naqvi directed the FIA to investigate and bring to justice those responsible for the accident.
He also directed the relevant officials to ensure action against those involved in human trafficking and urged the authorities to tighten the noose around individuals involved in hundi/hawala operations.
Further, pending promotions of FIA officials were discussed in the meeting, with Minister Naqvi urging for speedy resolution of these matters. He directed that pending promotion cases should be resolved within one month to ensure speedy justice.
He also stressed that taking action against hundi/hawala operations would help in the appreciation of the rupee, underlining the economic benefits of cracking down on illicit financial activities.
