The Cyberabad Police recovered 827 stolen or lost mobile phones worth nearly Rs 2 crore using the CEIR portal. The devices were returned to their owners during a special event. Citizens were urged to report lost phones through CEIR for faster recovery.
Hyderabad: The Cyberabad Police have recovered a total of 827 mobile phones worth nearly Rs 2 crore, which were either stolen or lost in the last one month.
The phones were recovered by the law-and-order police and other wings using the Central Equipment Identity Register (CEIR) portal. The recovered phones were handed over to their owners at an event held at the Cyberabad Police Commissionerate on Wednesday.
DCP (Crimes) A Muthyam Reddy highlighted how important mobile phones were in today’s time and they can be misused if they fall into the hands of thieves. “Despite many people being educated, few are aware of how to prevent stolen mobiles from being misused. Installing CCTV cameras in your colonies and community areas is highly beneficial for ensuring safety and security,” Reddy said.
He urged the citizens to report lost mobile phones either at their nearest police station or directly through the CEIR portal, which is accessible online across all States and union Territories.
“Using the CEIR portal helps prevent the misuse of stolen phones and facilitates their swift recovery,” the DCP added.
The mobile phone owners expressed their happiness and thanked the police for their prompt and efficient action.
