A/HRC/7/3/Add.2 page 100 519. All arrested persons are entered in relevant registers, maintained under Police Rules, and produced in courts within 24 hours of their arrest. 520. Recommendation (f) stated: It should not be possible for persons to be handed over from one police or security agency to another police or security agency without a judicial order. Where this happens, the officials responsible for the transfers should be held accountable under the criminal law. No judicial orders concerning detention should be issued by administrative magistrates. 521. The Government informed that transfers of arrested persons from one agency to another are subject to judicial orders of the courts. 522. Recommendation (g) stated: Police service should be removed from the ambit of political patronage and manipulation and, subject to the need for democratic accountability, be guaranteed sufficient autonomy to ensure that the police fulfil their vocation to uphold the rule of law. Mechanisms should be established to ensure that the recruitment, promotion and deployment of officers are based on professional merit. Police remuneration and training require substantial improvement. 523. The Government informed that to sensitize the police and further improve law enforcement response on issues concerning human rights, a comprehensive programme of human rights and gender sensitization has been included in the curricula of police training schools, police training colleges, and the National Police Academy. 524. Recommendation (h) stated: Independent complaints bodies and bodies with authority to inspect any place of detention, whose members would include persons acceptable to the local community, should be established on a nationwide basis as a matter of priority. The best practices that have been established by the Pakistan authorities should be followed generally: for example, the "duty officer" system introduced in Karachi could be emulated, though it is clear that such officers would need to have such rank and status as would ensure their immunity from the authority of the station house officer. 525. The Government informed that to deal with complaints against police, the following commissions have been established at different levels: the Criminal Justice Coordination Committee; the District Public Safety and Police Complaints Commission; the Provincial Public Safety and Police Complaints Commission; the National Public Safety Commission, and the Federal Police Complaints Authority. 526. Recommendation (i) stated: In order to protect women from custodial rape, the system introduced in Karachi of special police stations for female suspects should be expanded, so that all female suspects in Pakistan could be held in police custody only at such special stations.
