ISLAMABAD, Dec 17 :On the directions of Deputy Commissioner (DC) Islamabad, Irfan Nawaz Memon, operations targeting alms-seekers continued across the capital city.
According to the Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) administration spokesman, the Assistant Commissioner (Saddar) carried out a series of raids in G-11 and F-11 sectors late night and apprehended eight professional beggars.
He said that in a concerted effort to address the issue comprehensively, professional beggars were targeted to make the federal capital a liveable place for the citizens.
