Lahore (HRNW) The Rawalpindi deputy commissioner along with 15 other officers have been suspended for negligence in duty which led to the Murree tragedy.
On January 8, 22 people died in their cars after being stuck during a snowstorm in Murree.
At a press conference, Punjab Chief Minister Usman Buzdar said Rawalpindi division commissioner has been removed and his services have been kept at federal government’s disposal.
“I promised the nation action against those responsible for Murree tragedy and I fulfilled my promise,” said Buzdar.
The action has been taken on the report submitted by a four-member inquiry committee formed by the Punjab government under the additional chief secretary. The committee was mandated to probe the deaths.
