Drama series Jaan'nisar instantly captured the audience’s imagination. In a country like Pakistan where the police department remains in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons and is stigmatized as one of the most corrupt, rotten and plagued governmental entities, Jaan'nisar throws light on the other side of the story, in an impressive display of creativity and novelty.

Broadcast at 8:00 pm every Thursday on ATV and at 9:10 on Aplus every Friday, the play identifies the flaws in Pakistan’s criminal justice system and offers practicable remedies. The drama highlights the contributions and sacrifices made by police force in maintaining law and order in the face of serious challenges coming from lack of capacity, meager resources, political pressures, higher expectations and related constraints.

Plot

Jaan'nisar features Junaid Khan, a young and bright police officer who is gifted with exemplary skills in the line of duty. Played by the talented Sohail Sameer, Inspector Junaid is a very honest and capable police officer but the police station he is posted in has witnessed huge rise in the number of kidnapping, robberies, thefts, murders, domestic violence, drugs and other heinous crimes. Many crimes are not reported to police. Junaid equips the police station on modern lines and introduces such reforms in police culture that rapidly decrease crime rate in the area. He strengthens forensic investigation to nab the perpetrators of heinous crimes on scientific lines. From laying hands on circumstantial evidence to weighing the related factors and scientifically examining the proofs, Junaid discharges his responsibilities with utmost devotion, zeal, courage and commitment.

It is convincingly shown that with the introduction of forensic investigation transparency in the investigation is achieved and it drastically reduces the rate of serious crimes including robbery, murder, sexual exploitation, dowry issues, smuggling, terrorism and domestic violence.

Junaid resists political pressures not only professionally, but even at the personal level. Asad Khan, his father, is a big landlord and an influential politician. But Junaid refuses to budge to his pressures. Like other politicians, Asad Khan patronizes several groups in the area. Asad wants his son to join politics to strengthen him politically. On Junaid’s refusal, he is not happy with him. And upon Junaid’s joining police, he tries to use him for political purposes but fails. This further widens the gulf between father and son.

The equally potential track is of a crime show host Sara Iftikhar played by the talented Ghana Ali. She is very critical of police initially but when she come to know about the limitations of police department through Inspector Junaid, she supports police and highlights its performance.

gollark: I think if people were allowed to directly choose that breakdown, they would focus on the most politically-salient-to-them things, which for a lot of people *is* probably going to be stuff like "public order and safety", "defence" and whatever (remember, the country voted in favour of Brexit), and probably dismiss things like transport and industry and whatever.
gollark: So apparently government money is spent on this stuff.
gollark: Please hold on while I consult the UK government spending breakdown.
gollark: Okay.
