Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) Police have launched a Mounted Patrol Unit to increase patrolling for ensuring the safety of life and property of the citizens of the federal capital.
According to details, the newly launched unit will patrol on horses in areas where other patrolling units cannot go such as parks, hiking trails, dirt roads, mountains, and treacherous terrains.
In addition to guarding the federal capital, the Mounted Patrol Unit will also play an important role in projecting a soft image of ICT Police among the residents of Islamabad.
