Police Complaints in India Went Answered for 8 Years Due to Forgotten Password
- 10 years ago
Police in India are now under scrutiny after a long forgotten password caused hundreds of complaints to be unread and of course, unaddressed.
With countless passwords to remember, the jury’s still out on whether or not technology makes life easier. Police in India are now under scrutiny after a long forgotten about password caused hundreds of complaints to be unread and of course, unaddressed.
The grievances, which pertained to corruption, all came from the agency called Central Vigilance Commission. The emails date back to 2006 but because of the lost password, the messages continued to pile up for 8 long years.
Only recently were police in New Delhi able to gain access to the system. Now that the mishap has been corrected, two senior police officers are dealing with a massive amount of work.
They will have to address a total of 667 complaints. The Central Vigilance Commission, or CVC for short, is an India based anti corruption organization.
The agency’s purpose is to collect complaints about government officials and hand the information over to police. The two law enforcement officers’ job is to launch an investigation into each and every case.
It’s safe to say they’ll be busy for awhile. No estimated date was given on when the over 600 investigations will be completed. However one senior officer commented that the department 'remains committed to public grievances’.
