Syed Ali Nasir Rizvi, the former Islamabad Police chief, is set to become the Director General of the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA), according to sources cited by ProPakistani. Rizvi held the position of Inspector General of Islamabad Police following his appointment in April 2024, during which he managed policing, security, and law-and-order operations in the capital city.
His appointment follows a reshuffle in the federal capital's policing and cybercrime investigation system. Captain (Retd.) Sohail Chaudhry will take over as the new chief of Islamabad Police. The NCCIA is Pakistan's specialized agency tasked with investigating cybercrime and prosecuting cybercriminals. Its duties encompass handling complaints related to online fraud, harassment, data breaches, as well as digital forensics and technical investigations.
The agency, established as the central body for cybercrime investigations, succeeded the Federal Investigation Agency's cybercrime division and now operates through offices across the country, receiving complaints directly related to cyber offenses.
