Jharkhand Police: Jamshedpur: जमशेदपुर पुलिस होगी हाईटेक, ATS की तर्ज पर बनेगा TSC.

Concerned over the rising hi-tech, cyber crime cases, the East Singhbhum district police have decided to strengthen its mechanism for controlling cyber crime in the steel city. The crime has shot up this year, going by the increasing number of petitions and complaints that the police are receiving. Revealing about the move, SSP Akhilesh Kumar Jha said that the all the police officers and policemen have to be computer savvy so that a criminal can be located and nabbed without making any further delay. The senior SP said that they have already set up cyber cell at the Sakchi police station premises, just beside the police control room. “The officials of Technical Special Cell (TSC) knows how detect call record against a mobile number and how to track the caller by carrying out mobile phone surveillance within seconds. But what we need is to strengthen the cell,” said Jha. The senior SP said when the cell is functioning effectively, what they need is to spread its wings to various police stations and police offices, including the police control room so that after tracking the location of a caller from the TSC, the police action team on the other end must be ready to act instantly. He pointed out that for making the police stations cyber savvy, they must get the police stations equipped with computers and the necessary accessories. “When the police officials get well-conversant with the computer, then they will be able to find out the case history of any criminal at a click of a mouse sitting at any corner of the state. When we get the dossier of any criminal without making further delay, then it be an easy for find out the whereabouts of the criminal in question,” said the SSP. Recently a 15-day crash-course on criminal and crime tracking network system (CCTNS) was also conducted. The policemen learnt how to handle a computer for speedy detection of crime. But for most of the policemen, computer is an altogether new thing to get on to, the training programme has become a challenge. The cops learn the basic operating systems like Excel, Power Point etc from a professional. He pointed out once a sizable number of policemen and police officials are trained to handle computer, then they would feed data about the criminals will be computerised. Very recently the district police took 10 days to arrest a youth from Patna for allegedly making vulgar comment to a girl working at a Sakchi-based private courier company office. Though the victim had lodged the complaint a month ago, the police took so much time to nail the culprit. On earlier occasions also the district police successfully detected several grievous crimes by means of the TSC, but took a long time for this as the police stations have nether the computers nor the trained personnel. The senior SP, while emphasing the need of revamping the mechanism for tracking cyber crime in the city, said that he would make even the constables — the lowest ranked policeman — rained on how to detect a criminal involved in the cyber crime.
