Peshawar has become the first district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to introduce computerized first information report (FIR) registration in police stations.
How to check Computerized FIRs?
Citizens will now be able to check their FIRs online using the QR code, according to information provided by police officials. Computerized FIRs are now being registered at all the police stations of the provincial metropolis.
The computerized FIR will be linked to the Police Management System, which will enable police officers to review the status and progress made so far in the case.
SSP Operations, Haroon Rashid said the police staff would be given a detailed briefing about the police stations; record, and management service systems to further streamline the affairs of computerized FIRs.
What is an FIR?
A first information report (FIR) is a document prepared by police organisations in South Asian and Southeast Asian countries including Myanmar, India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan when they receive information about the commission of a cognizable offence, or in Singapore when the police receive information about any criminal offence. It generally stems from a complaint lodged with the police by the victim of a cognizable offence or by someone on his or her behalf, but anyone can make such a report either orally or in writing to the police, so it is necessary to know about cognizable offences. These are serious criminal offences that pose an immediate danger to society such as murder, rape, or robbery.
