Pakistan’s fast bowler Naseem Shah has been appointed as Goodwill Ambassador of Balochistan Police on Saturday.
The Balochistan police appointed Naseem as the “Honorary DSP” of the police, reports Daily Times.
For this appointment, a ceremony was held at the IG Balochistan Police Office, Quetta, in which the pacer was formally dressed in police uniform and ranks were also installed.
During the ceremony, Shah took to the stage to share his thoughts on his appointment.
Grinning with obvious joy, the cricketer expressed his gratitude to the Balochistan Police for the “honour”.
“As a child, I had been scared of policemen. My parents would scare me by mentioning the police. However, as I have grown up. I have come to realise the sacrifices they make to keep us safe. I have immense respect for the police and am deeply grateful for their assistance.”
Soon after the announcement was made, fans of the cricketer took to Twitter to share their love and support for him.
One user wrote: “National talented fast-bowler Naseem Shah has been awarded the post of honorary DSP by Balochistan Police.”
It should be noted that in July 2022, the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police appointed Pakistani cricketer Shaheen Shah Afridi as a goodwill ambassador to promote the soft image of the law enforcement agency among the citizens.
