Rising Street Crimes Expose Govt's Tall Claims

Police used tactic strategy to show the decline in crime rate rather than to curb the activities of the criminals. The policy of showing decline in the crime rate is usually employed in the police department from top to bottom. The conventional methods used to evaluate the police performance are being employed even at the higher echelons in different ways while the weekly registration of crime cases, severity of cases and number of FIRs are the only method to assess the police performance. the most common practice that has been used by the police is to change the subject of FIR. when a person goes to tha police station for his case regarding snatched vehicle and mobile phone, the officials file the FIR of the stolen or missing.
Majority of the victims of mobile snatching doesn't go to police stations for the registration of FIR until they are deprived of other valuables such as national identity card and the things. otherwise the victims of mobile phone snatching just imformed the mobile phone company to de-active the sim card only. The same thing happened with shafi baloch who is an employee of the nation who was depressed of his cell phone and his id cards (NIC) at a gun point just beside the office situated on the mohammad ali jinnah road. He requested the jamshed town police station to register his FIR. the police registered the FIR but changed the subject.he said the police registered the case after he introduced himself but when he returned to home and read out the FIR.. its subject was changed completely as the police had mentioned that his mobile and other valuables lost when he was on the way to office. a similar tactic was used in the case of one Adnan, who had been deprived of his motorcycle at gunpoint while the police registered the theft case.
