I suppose High Court meant
: Is a given CCTV " live " or plain " dead " ?
Context :
Will
ask for footage from police stations to see if CCTVs working: Bombay HC / IE
/ 16 March 2022
Extract
:
The Maharashtra government had told the court
that there are 1,089 police stations in the state and so far, 6,092 cameras had
been installed in 547 of them.
The Bombay High Court on Tuesday said it will seek CCTV camera
footage from random police stations in Maharashtra to ascertain whether they
have been repaired within stipulated time and are operational.
MY TAKE :
To find out whether a
particular CCTV camera is “ ON “ or “ OFF “, is technically very easy and there
seems to be no need for HC to demand “ random footage “ . Readily available
simple software will tell that to HC
What is of far greater importance
is :
What did any particular
CCTV camera capture ? Did it capture a footage which clearly / unambiguously
establish “ Human Rights “ violation ? ( a third degree treatment of person
being interrogated ? )
Is it possible for
hundreds of officers to go through millions of hours of CCTV footage MANUALLY
to come such a conclusion ?
