Hyderabad Police launches AI platform to map accused persons and criminal networks

Investigating officers in Hyderabad can now use an AI-based platform to analyze the activities, backgrounds and criminal networks of accused persons, with the city police launching an in-house system aimed at reducing the time spent gathering information from multiple records and databases.

The crime intelligence and investigation support platform called Dooradrishti was launched by Hyderabad Police Commissioner VC Sajjanar at the Integrated Command and Control Center (ICCC) on Thursday.

The platform is designed to give investigating officers a consolidated picture of an accused person and help them identify links to other persons and criminal networks. Police said the information previously required days of manual work across various records and databases, while the new system would bring the data together on a single platform.

The system is expected to reduce the time spent gathering and cross-checking information, allowing police officers to focus on field investigations, gathering evidence and filing charges in a timely manner.

At the launch, Sajjanar said Dooradrishti was developed by Hyderabad City Police personnel and will use years of police data to speed up investigations and help victims get faster justice.

The police said the platform is part of efforts to strengthen intelligence and preventive policing using artificial intelligence, digital technologies and cross-departmental data integration. It is intended to help identify potential threats, disrupt organized crime networks and prevent crimes.
