| [GEOTV] The Punjab 1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard 2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers 3.) A province of India. It is majority (60 percent) Sikh and Hindoo (37 percent), which means it has relatively few Moslem riots.... Police have rescued a cop from a gang of notorious Katcha (riverine area) dacoits of Machka in District Rahim Yar Khan, a police spokesperson said on Sunday. On Thursday, a group of Katcha bandidos blew up two police vehicles with a rocket in Machka, martyring 12 cops and wounding six others. Constable Ahmed Nawaz was kidnapped by robbers heavily armed with sophisticated modern weaponry after the attack on police mobile. In a statement, Rizwan Omar Gondal, District Police Officer (DPO) Rahim Yar Khan, said that the police department was working with full strength in the riverine areas. Constable Nawaz was reportedly released in exchange for dacoit Jabbar Lolai, who had been in police custody, according to sources cited by Geo News. However, a clean conscience makes a soft pillow... the police have neither confirmed nor denied this exchange. A video circulating on social media showed Katcha bandidos celebrating with gunfire following the release of their accomplice. After Nawaz's release, Punjab Police Inspector General (IG) Dr Usman Anwar met with the constable's family to inform them of his safe return. Dr Anwar stated that every member of the Punjab Police was crucial to the force, and Nawaz's recovery was a top priority for his department. He also emphasised that the Punjab Police were prepared to deal firmly with terrorists, assailants, and criminals. Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz appreciated the police on a successful operation in Katcha to safely recover the kidnapped constable.
