Personnel being trained to investigate cybercrime: Pune police commissioner Gupta

PUNE Pune’s police commissioner Amitabh Gupta on Thursday said that ample efforts are being taken to ensure that police staffers are trained to detect cybercrimes. This is being done upskilling police personnel at police stations.

The idea is to reduce pressure on the single cyberpolice station at Shivajinagar, in the wake of a rising number of cybercrimes being reported across the city.

Gupta was addressing the media at Pune’s Patrakar Sangh.

“We have put a system in place and a lot of cybercrime cases are being detected which were not taking place earlier. A lot of improvement has happened. Every police station is being trained to handle cybercrime cases,
