Police Certificate is not required for Pakistan according to NVC Country repository. I had interview in January and before that I emailed embassy about Police certificate. And Their reply was

Thank you for your email.

Please be informed that you are not required to obtain a police character certificate. At present, we are not asking immigrant visa applicants for police certificates.

Sincerely,
IV Unit, Consular Section,
US Embassy, Islamabad.
