International expert on criminology, faculty in police training colleges, world over Dr. James Vadakumcherry says the police had got criminalised and politicised. ?The police are doing 600 types of crimes including false FIRs, false witnesses, torture and custodial murders. The police are involved in nexus, enforcement, white collar and mafia-related crimes. 600 anonymous dead bodies are found on railway tracks, ditches, forest etc. every year, many of which may be abandoned by police after torture deaths.? He concluded by saying the police do not have modern systems of investigation like lie detector and brain mapping and are using torture to extract information. He called for redrafting of IPC to professionalise crime detection and conviction.
