There is no need to form Public-Police Transparency Committees, but the need is form Public-Police Oversee Committee so as to check the performance of Police by the reputable citizens in each Police Station in the country.
If reputable citizens will start sitting in the Police Stations, they will be able to see that how many innocent people Police lockup every day and release them after taking the bribe.
Moreover, it will also discourage when Police start beating (Chitrol) the arrested people in the Police Stations to make them confess the uncommitted crimes.
The Public-Police Oversee Committee will also be able to note that how many crimes are committed by the Police in the area right under the patronage of lower and high Police Officials in each district.
