On Scene Crime Reporting System for Law Enforcement in Sri Lanka

Abstract

Police may offer crime reporting also as a service. The number of reported criminal cases has increased over time. Law enforcement discovers a distinction between reported and unreported offenses, and a variety of factors could cause this gap. It is not an honourable thing to allow criminals to remain safely within the community as innocent persons, stimulating criminals to commit more crimes. This would result in the community being in grave danger of being victimized. Like criminal justice, members of the community would seem to be unable to do their tasks, although many crimes are not recorded. This may have an impact on ongoing investigations as well. In some cases, to cover this void from police killings, certain law enforcement authorities impact digital crime reporting platforms via the general public which could report offenses. This paper explains how crime reporting systems are assisting law enforcement and continuing investigations, and the general public's participation in any of these systems. The efficiency of the system in terms of policing is often explored in this study.
