Three-member committee to investigate how an unroadworthy Toyota Revo was assigned duty in President’s motorcade
The inclusion of an unroadworthy vehicle in President Asif Ali Zardari’s motorcade during his Thatta visit has triggered a high-level inquiry by the Sindh police, with the IGP seeking a report within seven days.
According to a notification issued by the office of the inspector general of police (IGP) Sindh on Nov 3, 2026, a three-member committee has been formed to investigate the inclusion of the faulty vehicle in the presidential convoy.
The vehicle, a government-owned Toyota Revo double-cabin pickup bearing registration number SPF-961, reportedly developed a technical fault during the visit.
Additional IGP Karachi Azad Khan has been appointed chairman of the inquiry committee, while DIG Logistics and Welfare Zubair Dreshak and DIG Finance Tanvir Alam Odho will serve as its members.
The committee will determine how a faulty and unroadworthy vehicle was assigned duty in the president’s motorcade and identify the officers and personnel responsible for its inspection and deployment.
It will also examine the vehicle’s mechanical condition at the time of deployment, any pre-existing technical defects, and its repair and maintenance records.
The inquiry will further scrutinise funds allocated to and spent by the Sindh Police Special Security Unit (SSU) on fuel, transport, repairs and the purchase of new vehicles.
The committee will also identify officers and personnel responsible for any negligence and recommend departmental action under the relevant rules. It will also propose measures to prevent similar incidents in future VIP and VVIP motorcades.
The IGP has directed the committee to submit a comprehensive inquiry report along with its recommendations within seven days.
