Cops ask PCO operators to check caller identification

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 26 Desember 2012 | 22.23

MUMBAI: The Mumbai Police has issued instructions to all STD and PCO operators in the city to check identity card proof of callers before allowing them to make phone calls.

This comes after carrying identity proof while travelling in train was made mandatory last year. This move is seen as a step to avoid threatening calls made from PCOs.

"There have been cases of threat calls from PCO and STD booths. Though police manage to track down the phone, in most of the cases the caller remains anonymous. This step will help to prevent such calls," police said. "Terror suspects or criminals use PCO phones, making it difficult to track them down," police added. There are over 60,000 public phone booths in Mumbai.

"We have issued instructions to maintain callers' records. It will help in avoiding many wrong things," deputy police commissioner and city police spokesperson Nisar Tamboli said.

The police said have issued instructions to the booth owners/care takers to note down the name, address of the caller and the number on which the call is being made.

"There are several PCO booths where the owner has more than five to six phones. Such booths may also be asked to install CCTV cameras to keep a record," police said.

However, some booth owners said they were yet to get any such guidelines.
