Mumbai: Finding a stolen phone on the Mumbai train network is a difficult task because gadgets change hands and cross-borders in a short time.
But the train police seemed to raise their games.
Between January and September 2021, the detection rate for cellphone theft has 30%.
Two years ago, it was 9% for the same period.
So, what has changed? Police use new era media to track and trap the perpetrators.
Another reason for higher detection is to increase skills in analyzing recording supervision.
Setting up special funds for investigations has been equipped with better GRP to travel to the country’s interior to recover stolen phones.
When the phone was stolen, the perpetrator immediately turned it off.
Sometimes, the IMEI figure can be modified before the handset is resold in other states.
Components can also be dismantled and used on other phones.
If this is not done, Cyber ​​GRP cells can track the phone immediately after turning on again, even if another SIM card is inserted.
“Usually, the telephone stolen from Mumbai Railways landed in West Bengal’s interior or Uttar Pradesh, where they were sold to poor individuals.
Investigators were hesitant to take a long distance to take handsets.
One factor is cost.
The cost is issued for transportation and to hire a guide To speak local language and who knows the topography, “said an officer.
The department came with special funds and began distributing progress to cover costs.
“Previously, police from each GRP Chowky came out of the country separately and could take one or two of the most handsets.
They have been replaced by a team that can keep cases registered in four or five police stations together,” said an officer.
Sleuth also utilizes social media to check in phone thieves.
Earlier this month, a 17-year-old boy was trapped in honey through an application sharing application by Vasai GRP.
The young man fled after stealing a telephone from commuter in Vasai.
At noting that he was active in the application, a police officer made a fake profile of a woman and sent a message to him.
Both of them became close and the boy returned to Vasai-Nallasopara on the insistence of ‘women’ for the meeting.
Crime data shows that it has not only been increased detection, but theft has been reduced on the Mumbai train in January-September 2021, compared to last year.
“The crime will decrease when repeated offenders are placed behind the bar.
Strengthening the branch of the train crime with skilled workers, training and technical ability to produce good results,” said Quaiser Khalid, Commissioner Mumbai GRP.
