Command leadership confirmed the Inspector General of Police issued no such instructions to personnel. Officials emphasized their commitment to protecting citizens and property within their assigned jurisdiction.
Police administrators urged residents to confirm information through official channels before sharing unverified claims. The command warned against distributing false reports that could mislead communities and interfere with security operations. Social media users received guidance to rely on authentic police communications rather than unconfirmed online posts. Authorities stressed the importance of accurate reporting during ongoing law enforcement activities. The statement reinforced the department's focus on legitimate policing duties rather than addressing baseless accusations.
