Mumbai to reopen cases of crime against senior citizensMumbai:The Mumbai police have decided to review unsolved murder cases involving senior citizens in the city. This decision follows a media report on the large number of unsolved murder cases involving seniors — 60 out of 175 between 1996 and February 19, 2008.
Meanwhile, police stations have been asked to prepare the list of domestic helps, servants and even milkmen who go into housing societies in their jurisdiction. “Earlier, housing societies had to furnish such details but now the police will visit buildings and prepare the list,” Prasad stated.This decision was taken as many murders involve servants, drivers, watchmen or those who frequent the societies, said Prasad. “We want to check if they have criminal records and keep tabs.”
