DIG Police told yes we will see it. Court should give us time.

The uniforms of police and Rangers are being stolen.
Assistant Attorney General said earlier no direction was given to Rangers.
Justice Mohsin Akhtar Kayani remarked ” I just issue order. All will understand. Otherwise neither IG nor any one else has right to stay in Islamabad. DG Rangers should know it if Rangers uniform has been used .People are lifting men in the uniform of police and Rangers and no one is caring for it.
The court directed the representative of defence ministry to say to DG Rangers to appear in the court in person on next hearing. DG Rangers and IG should see the matter and get register case. Its effect will come.
The court while directing interior secretary and DG Rangers to appear in person remarked ” bring with you your FIR. You have to save the uniform of your respective institution.
The court while directing IG Police Islamabad to appear in person remarked ” if the man does not come then I will summon interior minister.
