‘Monthly checks by SHOs, training sessions': Delhi top cop's guidelines to police stations to trace wanted criminals
Regularly updating data by using e-court portals, monthly checks by station house officers (SHOs), ensuring adherence to search protocol and arranging training sessions are among the guidelines that have been sent by Delhi Police Commissioner Sanjay Arora to all police stations in a bid to increase overall efficacy in tracing and nabbing wanted criminals, parole jumpers, and proclaimed offenders in the Capital. A total of 1,059 proclaimed offenders have been arrested by the Delhi Police till May 31, as per the official data. The Crime Branch of the Delhi Police traced wanted criminals, parole jumpers, and proclaimed offenders in the last six months by scanning data available on the Interoperable Criminal Justice System (ICJS) and e-prison portals, underlined a recent circular. The latest set of guidelines aims to ensure that these wanted criminals can be traced by local police stations too, and not just the Crime Branch, said officials. As per the guidelines, officers have been told to utilise the e-court portal to obtain the updated orders regarding the criminals. On the search protocol, the officers concerned have been told to search particulars of such criminals on the ICJS portals (Crime and Criminal Tracking Network and Systems, e-court, and e-prosecution) and match the data with police station records to ensure accuracy. In the latest directions, SHOs have been told to ensure monthly checks pertaining to their jurisdiction on the e-Prison and ICJS portals. 'Every SHO must issue a certificate to the District Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), confirming the completion of the monthly check, in the first week of the next month, positively. Similarly, all SHOs and inspectors shall share reconciled data of parole jumpers, proclaimed offenders, and wanted criminals with the CRO/Crime Branch every month through the District DCP concerned,' the circular dated June 30, signed by the Delhi Police Commissioner, stated. The police stations that have not created user IDs for the e-Prison and ICJS portals must do the needful, it added. Apart from this, the circular underlined, regular briefings and sensitisation must be done of all officers, IOs, and subordinate staff on updating and uploading details of wanted criminals, furlough jumpers on the Proclaimed Offenders Monitoring System (POMS) portal of CCTNS/ICJS through the National Informatics Centre (NIC). The circular also highlighted the importance of the training sessions. 'Crime division shall organise regular training sessions for officers, investigating officers (IOs), and subordinate staff on maximising the use of e-prison and ICJS portals with the assistance of CCTNS & Crime Records Office (CRO),' it read.
