  "account": "The Lahore Police has taken action against 206 officers and personnel, removing them from their current positions following departmental penalties for corruption. DIG Operations Faisal Kamran confirmed that these officials have been reassigned by the Lahore Police Operations Wing as a result of the disciplinary action taken against them. The police department has stated that personnel found guilty of corruption will no longer be posted at police stations or assigned duties that involve direct contact with the public. Instead, these individuals are being transferred to the Judicial Wing and other departments where their roles do not require public interaction. This move is intended to ensure that officers with corruption-related departmental penalties are kept away from positions that involve public dealings. The Lahore Police Operations Wing is also ramping up its efforts to combat corruption within the department.",
