A Karachi police officer has faced departmental action after an audio recording allegedly captured him apologising to a suspected drug dealer. The recording reportedly showed the officer attempting to settle the matter instead of pursuing legal action.
South Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Syed Asad Raza suspended Pak Colony Station House Officer (SHO) Faisal Gul after the audio circulated on social media.
Meanwhile, the police department has decided to seek technical verification of the recording. The National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) will examine its authenticity.
What Does the Alleged Audio Recording Reveal?
According to the departmental suspension order, the recording allegedly featured SHO Faisal Gul and a police constable speaking with Kashif, alias Dada.
Police described Kashif as a known drug peddler. The conversation reportedly involved the SHO attempting to resolve the matter through reconciliation.
The alleged exchange has raised questions about the officer’s conduct and his handling of the matter. Instead of taking legal action against the suspected drug dealer, the recording reportedly indicated an attempt to settle the issue.
