Original: CCTV at police stations: HC lays down safeguards when gadget is non-functional | Hindustan Times
A high court has laid down guidelines on the steps police must follow when CCTV cameras at police stations are not working. The safeguards come in the context of court requirements that stations keep constant video surveillance to protect detainees and ensure custody is properly documented. The ruling clarifies what police must do when equipment is non-functional, a recurring problem that courts have repeatedly flagged as undermining accountability in police custody cases.
Why now: The ruling addresses ongoing concerns about accountability and detainee safety when police station surveillance fails.
