Islamabad: (RightNow) The President has approved a new ordinance to protect Safe City cameras in Islamabad. Under this law, a fine of up to 2 million rupees can be imposed for damaging cameras.

The new law states that fines can be imposed for damaging Safe City cameras or surveillance infrastructure. Each camera or infrastructure damage can incur a fine of 2 million rupees.
