Ahmedabad: Police, who are considered the frontline soldiers in the Covid-19 pandemic age, have come up with innovative ideas in their efforts to deal with legal solutions.
In this order, the police are now experimenting with ‘whiff tests’ to drunk people and at the same time avoid capturing the Covid virus.
According to city police officers, the police have decided to rely on the wind to check whether the person, which is suspected of being drunk, has actually consumed alcohol or not.
“We will make people suspected of standing upright in front of the police.
Then we will find the direction of the wind and ask the person to stand in such a way that the wind passes from him towards us.
In this way, we will know from the smell that he is drunk,” said A police officer.
Officers said that the complaint had been submitted with city police on June 26 where a 48-year-old man from the Naranpura area was ordered using the same method.
FIR in this case says, “When the Covid-19 pandemic spreads with a large intensity, it is inappropriate to kiss the mouth because it can invite deadly infections.
We made him silent and then found from the wind that the smell of liquor came from him.
We made sure that he was drunk And then order it.
“Previously, traffic police had introduced a sobriety test of the field practiced in the US to submit a drunken and driving case.
This test is brought to a place because the use of breathalyzers is found at risk that can spread infection.
When the Pandemic Covid-19 broke, the police stopped kissing the suspect to avoid infection.
Instead, they began to examine the eyes of the suspect.
If found red, they will order people under the prohibition allegations.
Ahd: must be whiskey and you are in trouble!
