A ceremony was held in Lahore on Tuesday in the honour of policemen who arrested the main accused in the Lahore-Sialkot Motorway rape case a couple of months ago. 

On this occasion, Punjab Police Inspector General Inam Ghani distributed cash prizes of Rs2.5 million and certificates of appreciation to 40 officers and personnel. Speaking at the event, the provincial police chief said it was a good tradition to motivate the law enforcers who show courage, bravery and sense of duty while discharging their duties. To protect lives and properties of people with sincerity and eliminate criminals is the aim of the Punjab Police, he said. 

The police chief said it was as important to encourage those who deliver as to punish those who show dishonesty and negligence in their duties. He said this reward and punishment system would continue at all levels in the Police Department. He said the Lahore-Sialkot Motorway rape case was a difficult and challenging case, but the Punjab Police succeeded in resolving it.
