They have been dismissed from service for “failing to handle the situation in professional manner and directly firing on the vehicle”, thereby “bringing a bad name to the department.”
“Keeping in view of whole episode and his unprofessional approach towards official duties which has resulted [in] such unpleasant incident, the undersigned reached to the conclusion that his attitude towards official tasks is unbecoming and his further retention in the disciplined force like Islamabad Police is not justified,” read a dismissal letter issued to one of the personnel.
