Local tribes take charge of officer security under a no‑armoured‑vehicles pledge.
Overview
- Rahim Yar Khan DPO Irfan Ali Samo said 10 members of the Sakhani and Kosh gangs laid down arms at the Garhi Khair Muhammad Jhakk post under Bhong police station.
- Police identified the suspects by name and said they were wanted in Sindh and Punjab for kidnapping and armed robbery, adding they will face court cases without concessions.
- Ghotki police announced a written agreement for the Ronti Katcha area that permits operations as tribes assume responsibility for protecting police personnel.
- Under the pact police will refrain from deploying armoured vehicles, and sources report clauses barring shelter for outside proclaimed offenders and pledging to curb honey‑trap and phone kidnappings.
- Officials link the latest surrenders to sustained pressure that has restricted gang movement, noting the recent surrender of Lathani leader Meera alias Mero Lathani, who carried a Rs100 million bounty.
