In order to nail criminal elements and investigate heinous crimes threadbare, the city police have established two new CIA staff police stations.

These new CIA offices with new in-charges were opened in Vallah and Guru Ki Wadali areas, which were being headed by an inspector-rank official. Earlier, a CIA staff office was working near Division C police station here.

These CIA offices would be supervised by ACP-rank officials who would report or work under ADCP Abhimanyu Rana.

Police Commissioner Naunihal Singh had earlier divided the city into three zones supervised by three ADCP-rank officials. He said setting up of new CIA staff would help in proper investigation of heinous crimes and sensitive incidents in three zones. Earlier, the workload was on the single CIA staff office.
