Hyderabad Traffic Police start booking criminal cases against number plate violators
Hyderabad, August 09: The Hyderabad Traffic Police is now filing criminal charges against violators as a result of several drivers failing to correct their vehicles’ incorrect registration plates, raising security and safety concerns.
About 100 people have been arrested for cheating by the Hyderabad Traffic Police in various police stations over the course of the past month.
“After repeated warnings failed, we started booking criminal cases. Criminals usually move with tampered plates or vehicles with no number plates and it is a serious law and order issue,” a senior Traffic Police official said.
The police are invoking Section 420 of the Indian Penal Code and other sections of the Motor Vehicle Act against the violators. “A common intention of the majority of vehicle owners is to escape traffic penalties. It amounts to cheating the government and the traffic police. Hence, a cheating case is being booked and the vehicle is seized,” the official said.
Local law and order police take the vehicle owner/rider to the police station and file a criminal complaint based on the complaint from the traffic official after the local traffic police detain the vehicle and notify the local law and order police station. “Wherever the law and order police are finding vehicles without a number plate or tampered registration number, they are also booking cases,” the official said.
Once a case is booked, the offender must appear in court every day until the trial is through, which could cause them a great deal of inconvenience.
People use a variety of strategies to get out of traffic tickets or after committing any kind of offense. According to officials, one method is to delete a digit or alphabet, and the other is to cover one up with paper, plaster, or fabric.
