CTD

Counter Terrorist Department (CTD):

CID revamped in 2010 and its new name is Counter Terrorism Department. During implementation of National Action Plan, Army chief, Additional Inspector-General of Police (IGP) and Chief Minister of Punjab wanted to introduce a new productive force known as CTF. Based on the military model of training, the induction was concluded on an unprecedented level of recruitment.

The incorporation of highly educated personnel from backgrounds ranging from Information Technology to Health sciences and rigorous training from Special Service Group of Pakistan Army has distinguished the Force from other sister Agencies. In turn, the Counter-Terrorism Force has delivered extra ordinary results since its initial stage.

The work efficiency of the department is remarkable and up to the par of international standards. This department of police is considered as most disciplined, productive, efficient and zero percent corrupted. CTD has emerged as top Intelligence Agency at provincial level.

In the history of Police department of Pakistan, CTD is the only department to take Two Presidential Awards from President, Mamnoon Hussain in 2016 and again in 2017 due to the extraordinary level of gallantry manifested myriad times. Due to being the Top Provincial Agency and having Secret Service status, not much details and whereabouts of the department are known to the public.
