The statement said that DPO Mohammad Imran along with other security officials visited different checkpoints in Bara and issued instructions to the policemen.

The cops were also directed to stay alert and wear both helmets and bulletproof jackets during duty timings.

They also directed not to use mobile phones during duty time.

The policemen were told to keep a strict vigil on movement of motorcycles in Bara.

They were warned of strict disciplinary action if any of them did not adhere to official instructions.

Meanwhile, sources at the police training centre told Dawn that Peshawar Capital City Police Chief Ejaz Khan expressed displeasure over the rising incidents of terrorism in Khyber and killing of a number of policemen in the attacks.
