The Karachi police's attempt to identify the man involved in a public sexual harassment incident in Gulistan-e-Jauhar has hit a roadblock. Despite utilizing Artificial Intelligence technology to develop a sketch from grainy CCTV footage, doubts have arisen regarding its accuracy.
The viral nature of the incident on social media prompted police intervention, but non-cooperation from the victim and an inconclusive three-member committee investigation have hindered progress.
Now, with the release of a sketch that bears little resemblance to the actual culprit, the case becomes increasingly perplexing for the investigating authorities.
Meanwhile, in a bid to combat criminal activities in Sindh, the Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) has introduced the "Gray Book," a comprehensive profile of the region's most notorious criminals.
This inaugural edition provides detailed information, including photographs, of criminal networks across all 28 districts of the province. The book covers various criminal groups involved in robberies, incarcerated gangs, and active offenders causing harm during criminal acts.
With the aim of taking strict action against these organized criminals, the Gray Book will be distributed to all districts, paving the way for a coordinated law enforcement operation.
Spearheaded by the Inspector General of Sindh Police Ghulam Nabi Memon this initiative will enhance the police's ability to control crime and apprehend offenders effectively.
By categorising criminals separately from terrorists, this comprehensive record will aid in maintaining law and order.
