The CTF ( Counter terrorism force ) is a special purpose law enforcement force which is operationally responsible for combating all forms of terrorism. Weather the terrorist activities are of Cyber nature, militant nature or terror financing nature the CTF is tasked with handling the situation.
Although the CTF is a organization on it's own it is not a special forces or a sperate entity rather it's a coalition of sorts having some roots still connected with all the provincial police forces each of who have their own special forces units. Regardless the CTF has it's own highly respect intelligence agency , special forces investigation team and a paramilitary force that specializes in handling terrorist threats in urban areas.
History :
In 1995, the Criminal Investigation Department former CTF was formally created and it operates under the CID Manual, 1937. Starting as a small operational unit, it has now developed into a department having its regional offices all over the Pakistan . The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) was named as Terrorism Department (CTD) on 21-07-2010.
The CDF was revamped in 2010 and it's new name became the Counter Terrorism Department. During the implementation of the national action plan in 2010 the top heads of state including the military heads wanted to create a specialist department that can Handel the growing threat of terrorism from Afghanistan.
Training and recruitment
Based on the military model of training, the induction of the CTF members was concluded on an unprecedented level of recruitment. The of highly educated personnel from backgrounds ranging from Information Technology to Health sciences and rigorous training from Special Service Group ( Special forces ) of Pakistan Army distinguished the Force from other sister Agencies.
Weapons and equipment
(Note the guns in the hands of 1st and 2rd person from the left its 100% CZ BREN, are you thinking what i am thinking or is it just the picture from trials)
When it comes to arming the police and other law enforcement agencies the CTD is issued on a priority bases, getting the best and latest equipment weather it's fire arms or tech related. When it comes to fire arms the CTF units are equipped with a big variety weapons more suited to each environment which includes Grenade/Rocket launchers as some time seen in their hands when outside the urban areas.
They are also given access to armored cars , Armored personnel carriers and helicopters belonging to the provincial police forces they are stationed near.
Operational effectiveness
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 as most disciplined, productive, efficient and zero percent corrupted. CTD has emerged as top Intelligence Agency at provincial levels. Due to being the Top Provincial Agency and having Secret Service status, not much details and whereabouts of the department are known to public.
The CTFs operations against Al Qaeda- Taliban and other militant groups resulted in terrorists losing most if not all influence in urban areas and foiled most terror plots such as ( Bombings, mass shootings or hostage situations ) by using it's intelligence assets and expert anti bomb squad's. The CTF also assisted police in operations against many mafia style groups and high profile criminals which resulted in big drop of violence in the country.
