Ghulam Nabi Memon has been appointed as the Inspector General of Police Sindh for the second time.
The Sindh government had recommended his name as IGP Sindh to the federal government on March 4.
The government in a notification, issued by the cabinet secretariat office on Sunday, said: “With the approval of the federal government, Mr Ghulam Nabi Memon […] is transferred and post as Provincial Police Officer (PPO), Govt. of Sindh, under Section 10 of the Civil Servants Act, 1973, with immediate effect and until further orders.”
Memon was appointed as the IGP Sindh in 2022 and was removed by the caretaker set-up, which appointed Riffat Mukhtar Raja as the IGP.
Memon, a BS-21 officer of the police service of Pakistan, has been serving as the State Life Insurance Corporation executive director until now.
After joining the police force in the early 1990s, Memon has served in various districts of Punjab and Sindh as well.
He has also served in the Intelligence Bureau as a director in Karachi between 2006 and 2008 and then as Joint Director IB Sindh twice between 2011 to 2016.
He was awarded Sitara-i-Shujahat and Tamgha-i-Imtiaz by the government over his professional achievements.
