Memon noted that previously, the police failed to prove many cases in courts due to a lack of evidence and hopes that the situation will change now.
Previously, we didn’t have the equipment of international standards, due to which, many pieces of evidence were already lost before the officers had reached the scene.
The unit is equipped with a modern system that functions for 24 hours. The system will remain in contact with the operational police parties throughout the city and will help them reach the crime scene at the earliest.
