Islamabad, In a notable achievement in their ongoing efforts to apprehend fugitives, Punjab Police have successfully extradited a dangerous proclaimed offender from Saudi Arabia, marking the 15th such arrest from abroad this year. The operation, led under the directions of Inspector General Police Punjab Dr. Usman Anwar, highlights the department’s intensified crackdown against criminals who have fled the country.
According to Punjab Police, the offender, identified only as Shahid, had been wanted by the Sadder Police district Rajanpur since 2022 for involvement in several incidents of robbery and dacoity.

Furthermore, Dr. Anwar has instructed the police force to intensify its efforts to arrest the most wanted criminals involved in heinous crimes, underscoring the commitment to improving public safety and upholding the rule of law.
This extradition is part of a broader strategy by Punjab Police to combat crime by targeting proclaimed offenders and fugitives, ensuring they face legal consequences for their actions regardless of their attempts to flee justice. The collaboration with international law enforcement agencies, such as Interpol and the Saudi Arabia Police, demonstrates the global reach of law enforcement efforts to combat crime and protect communities.
