Inspector General of Police Faisal Shahkar has been selected as Police Adviser to the United Nation Department of Peace Operations by Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, becoming the first officer from Pakistan to have this prestigious position. The two-year assignment is extendable for another term of the same length.
IGP Shahkar has a nine-year experience of working at the UN Headquarters and had also performed various field duties in Liberia and Bosnia-Herzegovina under the UN Mission.
He has served in the Police Service of Pakistan for more than thirty years.
As his training course commander in 1989, I congratulate him and wish him the very best.
