DGP Swain Visits SIA Jammu, Reviews its working, interacts with officials

Jammu: The Director General J&K Police R.R Swain during a surprise visit to State Investigation Agency (SIA) Jammu here on Wednesday reviewed its working and interacted with the officials posted there. Ms. Deepika SP and head of Jammu unit of SIA briefed DGP about the working space and environment which she said had been improved for SIA investigation officers, charge sheets of important militant financing and narco-militancy cases filed. She also explained the anklet programme pioneered by the CID wing. J&K police is the first in the country in the entire country which introduced this technology based stringent bail condition that remotely monitors the movement of UAPA, NDPS and other offenders facing criminal proceedings for committing heinous and repeat crimes.
The DGP impressed upon SIA to make a mark in investigating militancy related cases and create a fear of law in the minds of militants and their associates in the militant ecosystem.
The SIA is focusing on property attachments, freezing of bank accounts, executing non bailable warrants, opening Look Out Circulars etc to put social as well as financial pressure on militants. DGP agreed to the proposition of SIA officials that full throttled efforts should be made to make those seeking and succeeding in getting bail connected with militancy, secessionism, narcotics, land mafia and gangsterism to pay for the anklet. Why should public pay for the anklet and its service which costs around ₹50,000 was their contention.
