The IGP has also directed that citizens be made aware of the dangers of travelling abroad through the “donkey route,” so that no one succumbs to temptation and risks their lives.
Nain also urged district police to maintain vigilant surveillance in such cases and strengthen local intelligence networks to ensure timely apprehension of agents involved in this illegal activity.
Additionally, he stated that patrolling should be increased at the police station level to effectively control crime, pending cases should be regularly reviewed, and the police’s image should be strengthened by increasing public communication
