My story: Once I was travelling in Karachi, suddenly some thieves came in my way, stopped me and snatched my mobile phone (Nokia 3310) So, I thought of registering an FIR against the thieves For the sake I went to Thana (Police station) Now, when I reach the Thana and ask for registration of FIR, they are considering it as a joke or something very amusing when someone is registering FIR of Nokia 3310 (the cheapest mobile of that time) PAGE The amazing thing was that the same happened to my friend at the same place and the same treatment he got at Thana as me To me it has become a serious issue not mainly because of the mobile but because of that a “crime report” was being ignored “Ignoring a crime’s report means encouraging the criminal”—Anonymous In hindsight, I obsessed about it, presuming that it is not only me or my friend whose FIR is being rejected or being registered but in fact there will be hundreds and thousands cases that will ignored I also perceived that a lot of people will even have left off going Thana for registering such and even bigger cases Thana culture has almost become useless for such cases People don’t even want to go to Thana because of the culture being adopted there People think it is just a waste of time if you go to Thana for reporting such a minor crime or even serious crimes If someone wants to report a crime and the Thana culture concur with him/her and he/she get it reported No further action is being taken; FIR is being thrown into treasures to be discovered by archeologist This make person not to come next time to the station as it is useless even if a crime gets reported I’ll embark on few reasons/things that made us develop this project Crime reporting system: The crime reporting system of our country has gone ineffective It is not producing the results the way it was supposed People should willingly have gone there but because of its ineffectiveness no one ever wants to go to Station to report a crime Policemen will demand bribery if you want to report an incident They will send you to another station saying that you belong to that station not this They will make lame excuses to make you not come again They take these things slack and don’t go for the solution Once I lost my wallet and I gone to police station for the sake to report it When I reached the station and asked policemen for FIR, they shuffled me off by sending me to another station saying that I didn’t belong to this one but fact of the matter was that policemen of the same station used to mobile every day in our area PAGE Crime reporting process: The process of reporting crime is so lengthy that no one ever wants to report a crime It is lengthy because of given few reasons Going to Police station: One should go to police station if he/she has to register an FIR You will have to go to police station for reporting a crime, if whether you are in mood to go there or not, whether your condition is suitable for going there or not You may have had threats from someone but you’ll have to go to police station for reporting a crime and even you can’t report about these threats without catching the route of police station Wait for your turn/time: There is only one diarist/clerk present in a police station and it always happen whenever someone go to a police station that he/she will have to wait for his/her turn or for the time to come Policeperson may be busy in reporting other crimes or maybe he/she is busy in gossiping with his some friend or colleague Reporting on paper: Even in 21st century we are totally depending on paper and pen where other countries are not even depending on type-writing Because there is only one diarist, so, it is one man show The only diarist will write down FIR, put it forward to high authorities and also register it in the record of the station All these factors add up to resist one from reporting a crime Knowing the lengthiness and the tiresomeness of no one should easily say yes to go to a police station and report a crime Incident of the similar type happened in our area this month It was month Ramadan when some thieves came and made an attempt to steal a villager’s motorbike Fortunately (for owner but unfortunate for thieves: D), they were being caught The villagers didn’t take them to police station and opted to settle down the situation themselves by reaching a compromise After inquiry about why the thieves weren’t being taken to the station, not reporting crime and settling down everything locally It is pathetic to know that I was PAGE being told that it is useless to go to police station, nothing is going to make out of it It is a total waste of time We’ll be asked for bribery No actions are going to be taken against the criminals The incident will be mince mattered if we opted to go for police station These are the things and reasons that aid and abet criminals and increase the crime rate The increasing crime rate is mainly because of not reporting crimes anything else According to a rough survey 30% of the crimes in Pakistan go unreported and many surveys has also shown that why they didn’t police station and report a crime People instead say that they would like to leave it unreported, knowing that how harmful and disloyal it is and it would be Moreover, all these things aspects join forces to make the crime reporting system ineffective One it has gone ineffective then introduction of a new system is felt which is effective People would love to work with the newly introduced system in order to solve their problems and make their lives easy and keep the new system effective Record/database of Crimes: The record of the reported crimes is scattered all over the country There is no centralized database for the crimes being reported where you can access the record of the crime you want A person who is resident of KP has no instant access to the record of the crimes in Punjab or any other province Even people living in one city/district can’t access records of the crimes in another city/district or even people living in a specific area within the premises of a certain police station don’t have access to the record another nearby police station Public is totally unaware of whether the crime has taken place or not What is the fact of the matter? People don’t know An incident is being buried/stuck in the police station People don’t know if whether any crime has taken place or not? Where has the crime taken place? When has crime occurred? What is the prerogative about all these things totally, no one does know Crime reports are of no use of public Public is totally unaware of crime occurrence For the reason public is living in the same way openly as they used to be without changing (in fact increasing) there self-defense PAGE No one can best the criminals because they don’t know about him/her, that whatever crimes have been committed by him/her While it is just like plunder for them because the criminal knows that not more than half a dozen people know about previous/recent crime(S) that took place The record/database of reported crimes is of no use f public There is no organized system for the reported crimes Its record is distributed all over the country You can’t make any sketch for all the record Number of crimes reported can’t easily be calculated because of decentralization of the record People are not intimated about the crimes This decentralization also weakens control on crimes in a way that no centralized strategy can be made for each sort of crime because of the dispersion of the system Every strategy made for controlling the crimes fails with the passage of time because these strategies are sort of local and can’t last forever Non-location orientation: Currently implemented is not on the basis of location It is no location oriented No exact location of the reported crime is known Even the diarist (the one who is writing down the report in the police station) doesn’t exactly know that where has the incident taken place If the diarist or any other Police-person tended to know about the exact spot, he/she should return frustrated because of the communication barrier (the affected person will be unable to tell the exact point/spot and every human is expected to so) The person can only tell/explain co-ordinates of where the incident has taken place There are some online crime reporting systems implemented in different areas including KP Pakistan but these systems don’t use exact pin point location which is one of their drawbacks joining the list of others Exact/pin point is important in so many ways like, Making decisions about an area that what is the rate of the crimes in this area Which type of crime is mostly committed over here? At what time of day and night mostly crimes occur?
