|June 01, 2025
THE Punjab Police is planning to introduce GPS-enabled anklets for drug smugglers out on bail to track their movements, taking a cue from the J&K Police.
"In J&K, GPS tracking anklets were started for UAPA accused who are bailed out to monitor them. We are examining the proposal from a legal point of view," Punjab DGP Gaurav Yadav said on Saturday. When an accused is released on bail, there are some conditions. After taking orders from competent courts, GPS anklets will be put on notorious drug smugglers out on bail to track their movements, Yadav told reporters.
