In an effort to prevent burglaries in locked residences, Superintendent of Police, Coimbatore district, S. Selvanagarathinam introduced ‘SaKo’ (Safe Kovai) mobile application here on Friday.
The application, which was developed by Sri Ramakrishna Engineering College in collaboration with the Coimbatore District Police, was launched at the District Police Office. The SP told mediapersons that the residents of the district shall download the ‘SaKo’ application and register their addresses, upload the photographs of their houses and enter the period during which the house would remain locked.
With over 20 lakh residents living within the Coimbatore District Police limits, Mr. Selvanagarathinam said the details of most of them were not available with the police. With this mobile application, the sharing of details had been made easier and the police personnel during night patrol would be provided with tablets to track these houses, he added.
