Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

CCTV Footage Random Checking ?

 


 

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 ?
