Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari paid heartfelt tribute to the brave sons and daughters of the police force who laid down their lives in the line of duty, as the country observed Police Shuhada Day on Sunday.
In a message released by the Bilawal House Media Cell, the PPP chairman said that every police martyr is a symbol of courage and a reminder of the heavy price paid for maintaining peace.
Our police martyrs are the silent guardians of our peace, who gave their lives so our people can live without fear,” Bilawal said.
He reiterated his party’s firm commitment to the welfare of police martyrs’ families. “Let us honour their memory with a pledge to build a society worthy of their sacrifices – a society founded on justice, peace, and dignity,” he stated.
Memorial Run at Do Darya
To honour the fallen heroes of Sindh Police, a 5-kilometre “Run for Shuhada” was organised at Do Darya, Karachi, under the banner of “Born to Run Pakistan.” Nearly a thousand male and female participants took part in the event.
Inspector General of Police (IGP) Sindh Ghulam Nabi Memon, who was the chief guest, addressed the participants and said the run aimed to raise public awareness about physical fitness, respect for traffic rules, and the rule of law.
He said that every year on August 4, Sindh Police commemorates the sacrifices of its martyrs by meeting with their families and distributing gifts among their children. At the conclusion of the run, cash prizes ranging from Rs100,000 to Rs50,000 were distributed among participants. The event ended with enthusiastic tributes paid to the martyrs of Sindh Police.
