Don’t exhibit high-handedness on lockdown violators: IGP Gyawali



KATHMANDU: Inspector General of Police (IGP) Thakur Prasad Gyawali has directed police officials not to exercise high-handedness on people in the name of enforcing lockdown.

IGP Gyawali summoned three Additional Inspector Generals— Tarini Lamshal, Sailesh Thapa and Hari Bahadur Pal— and Chiefs of Police Offices in Kathmandu and directed them to immediately stop baton-charging general public.
