Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Revises Police Amendment Act 2024 After Concerns

In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, a new draft of the Police Amendment Act 2024 has been prepared following police officers’ concerns about the initial version.

The revised draft of the Police Amendment Act 2024, drafted in consultation with legal experts and police officials, proposes significant changes to enhance police governance and operational autonomy.

The revised act entails that the Chief Minister’s previously held powers to directly appoint and transfer District Police Officers (DPOs) and Regional Police Officers (RPOs) will now be handled through a more formalized summary process. This shift aims to introduce a more systematic approach to such appointments.

Furthermore, the new draft grants the Inspector General of Police (IGP) the authority to manage the internal postings and transfers of higher-ranking officers, such as DIGs and Additional IGs, emphasizing the police force’s operational independence.

To broaden oversight and public accountability, the act proposes expanding the Public Safety Commission from three to five members, extending their tenure from three to four years. This commission will include independent members nominated by the government and additional members appointed by the Public Service Commission and the Provincial Ombudsman.

The amendment introduces a significant operational change: the decentralization of the Complaint Authority, transitioning its functions to a regional level, which aims to enhance accessibility and effectiveness.

The draft also addresses the restoration of the police investigation system within Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, ensuring that all operations remain under the direct control of the police, thus maintaining the integrity and efficacy of law enforcement activities.
