LAHORE: Bilal Siddique Kamyana has said that comprehensive security arrangements will be ensured for cattle markets, traders and buyers during Eid-ul-Azha.
He stated this in a statement issued on Monday regarding security measures for cattle markets established for the sale and purchase of sacrificial animals ahead of Eid-ul-Azha.
According to the Lahore Police spokesperson, six officially approved cattle markets have been established in the provincial capital for Eid-ul-Azha. These markets have been set up at Saggian Road near the Sui Gas Office Shahdara, Sports Complex Adda Rakh Chabeel, Bedian Road near Paragon City, LDA City Kahna Kacha, Shahpur Kanjran and Raiwind near Haveli Markaz.
The CCPO Lahore said that no cattle market would be allowed at any location other than the approved sites. He added that setting up illegal cattle markets and sale points in residential areas and along major roads has been strictly prohibited and legal action will be taken against violators.
Bilal Siddique Kamyana also directed strict action against swindlers involved in cheating citizens and traders through counterfeit currency. He ordered effective measures to protect citizens from pickpockets and criminal elements and directed officials to further enhance patrolling, picketing and police deployment in and around cattle markets.
The CCPO Lahore also instructed the Chief Traffic Officer Lahore to ensure effective traffic management around cattle markets. He urged citizens to immediately report any emergency or suspicious activity to the Police Helpline 15.
