The district authorities tightened the security perimeter around the residence and also stationed an ambulance and a fire fighting vehicle at the 300-kanal villa situated on the outskirts of the federal capital. Security measures outlined in the notification include installation of search lights around boundary walls, green curtain around the lawn and parking arrangements for those visiting.
