India, July 22 -- Delhi Police is using its network of artificial intelligence-based cameras to identify people allegedly involved in clashes during the CJP protest, with investigators saying those responsible for attacking police personnel would be arrested, sources said on Wednesday. The AI-enabled surveillance system is being used to analyse footage from the extensive network of CCTV cameras installed across the New Delhi district, a police source said. "These AI cameras will help police identify those who were involved in clashes with the police, damaging government vehicles and attacking police personnel. Their criminal records will be checked using the police database and they will be arrested," the source said.
The source said people who did not participate in any violence had nothing to worry about. Appealing to the public to assist the investigation, the source said citizens could share information about those involved in the violence, and their identity will never be disclosed. "There is a sea of CCTV cameras installed in New Delhi. Every person found to be involved in the clashes will be identified, their criminal records will be verified and they will be brought to justice," another police officer said, requesting anonymity. So far, 10 FIRs have been registered in connection with the violence, the police said.
