IG Sindh AD Khawaja sent on forced leave
The decision has been taken by Sindh government.
KARACHI (Dunya News) – The PPP-led Sindh government has sent Inspector General (IG) of Sindh Police A.D. Khawaja on a forced leave today (Monday).
The decision has been taken by Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah few days before the arrival of PPP co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari.
According to sources, new Sindh IG’s appointment is expected to take place during AD Khawaja’s absence.
Differences emerged between AD Khawaja and the ruling authorities over the issue of recruitments and appointments in Sindh Police, sources told.
Meanwhile, the Federal Government has intervened, stating that AD Khawaja cannot be removed from his post.
Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif had approved the appointment of Allah Dino Khawaja as IG Sindh in March this year after Ghulam Haider Jamali’s removal.
It may be mentioned here that ex-President Asif Ali Zardari will return to Pakistan on December 23 after spending about 18 months in Dubai.
Addressing a press conference in Karachi, PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that doctors have allowed his father to travel and he would land in Pakistan on Friday.
