Pakistan to Establish China-Style Law Enforcement Investigation Centre in Islamabad, Aiming to Speed Up Disposal of Minor Offence Cases.

Pakistan’s Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi said government plans to open a new investigation centre in Islamabad that will bring together detention, investigative work and quick‑summation trials under one roof. The move is intended to speed up the processing of minor offence cases and reduce procedural delays. The announcement followed a meeting with assistant superintendents of police who had recently returned from training courses in China and Turkiye. They described the overseas programs as highly valuable for building professional skills and exposing Pakistani officers to modern policing tactics, advanced surveillance technology and contemporary approaches to public safety. Naqvi added that foreign training will become a permanent element of police professional development. He also highlighted the introduction of drones into the Ministry of Interior Aviation Wing to enhance aerial surveillance and support policing operations. Other reforms announced include specialised investigation rooms at the National Police Academy, a new curriculum adding interrogations as an academic subject, and new uniforms designed to meet operational needs. The initiative aims to model Pakistani policing on internationally proven systems, making the law‑enforcement system more effective, responsive and technology‑driven.
