Replying to a question, the IGP said "Our intelligence-based operations are being conducted to take action against any kind of sabotage and you all know that sporadic attacks are being carried out in different palces. Police are well prepared to provide necessary support for holding a free election dealing with all sabotage activities."

"We have not received any list of criminals or illegal arms holders from the EC but we have been directed to arrest them," he said.

The drive against criminals and illegal arms holders will continue, he added.
