TIPLINES are online tips about the circulation of CSAM/(Child Sexual Abuse Material) that are furnished to State CID by the National Crime Record Bureau (NCRB). CID analyses these TIPLINES and forwards the same to jurisdictional police for registering FIRs. Such cases are reviewed regularly by CID for their progress.

“Perpetrators of such crimes are warned to stay away from such illegal activities, otherwise law will take its own course. Suspect sheets also will be opened with preventive detention of repeated offenders,” said Mahesh Bhagwat.

TIPLINES primarily include uploading and wide circulation of Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM).

The CID chief during the review meeting instructed all investigating officers to expedite the investigation and to give top priority to the cases and secure conviction.

He also appreciated the I.O.s who ensured speedy arrests and filed charge sheets in CSAM cases.
