In a case of a prisoner escape from Mandrah, three police officers involved in the conspiracy have been arrested on the orders of Rawalpindi CPO Hassan Mushtaq Sukhera. The arrested officers include ASI Taqeer Hussain, Head Constable Mahboob Khan, and Constable Qasim. A case has been registered at the Mandrah police station under various sections including terrorism, criminal conspiracy, attempted murder, and resisting police.

According to police, prisoner Hamad was brought from Jhelum Jail to Rawalpindi court for a hearing. On the return trip, police officers and the prisoner’s accomplices allegedly planned in advance to place him in a private vehicle instead of an official one and facilitated his escape. When Mandrah police attempted to stop the suspects upon receiving the information, the escaping prisoner Hamad and his accomplices opened fire on the police party. However, police managed to arrest one of the accomplices, Daniyal, from whom a Kalashnikov was also recovered.

The police have initiated a search operation in the area to capture the escaped prisoner Hamad, while raids by police teams are ongoing at various locations. According to police, the escaped prisoner Hamad has a record of serious criminal cases. CPO Hassan Mushtaq Sukhera has made it clear that Hamad and his accomplices will be apprehended and brought to justice, and any assistance or support for criminal elements will not be tolerated.
