Pakistan's federal government has transferred Syed Ali Nasir Rizvi from his role as Inspector General of Islamabad Capital Territory Police and appointed him Director General of the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA), a newly empowered body tasked with tackling digital crime. The move, announced by the Establishment Division, was made under legislation amended in 2025 and grants Rizvi a non-extendable three-year term heading the agency. His vacancy as Islamabad's top police officer will be filled by Captain (retd) Muhammad Sohail Chaudhry, currently serving under the Punjab provincial government.
