He assured residents and visitors that the command is committed to upholding law and order and warned that anyone attempting to disrupt the peace would face legal consequences.
The police urged social media users and public figures to exercise caution and avoid spreading misinformation or making inflammatory remarks. Anyone found undermining public peace, whether online or offline, will be held accountable under the law.
