Prayagraj: In the first training of its kind, the Pratapgarh police mapped the house and residence of criminals and legal breakers with the help of drones to find out about their hiding and to block all the perpetrators to escape during violators of police attacks.
After preparing a new document of 1,600 criminals whose names appeared repeatedly in connection with booty, dako, murder, robbery, grabbing and other small violations in the last 10 years, the police have decided to mapping their homes \ hideaway with the aim.

A senior police official team on Wednesday launched a mapping of repeated violator houses in the district mandhata circle.
Circle Officer (City) Abhai Kumar Pandey told TII, “The police initially launched the physical verification of the recently redeemed criminals.” He added that the Thana police concerned had been asked to examine the activities of the criminals (those who were redeemed recently), especially those involved in booty, grabbing and dakoity.
Pandey, meanwhile, said that Pratapgarh police also mapped houses \ criminal hiding place so they could not escape from their hiding if the police stormed their address in connection with a case.
“Once we finish the mapping of criminal hiding or home in the seventh circle of the district, the police will be deployed in and around the criminal house during the attack so they cannot avoid the police team,” Pandey said.
