Stepping up its combat against cyberpunks, Kerala police has decided to set up cyber cells in all districts, state DGP Jacob Punnoose said today.

The state government has already provided Internet connectivity in all police stations. So the move comes as a logical next step for the government. “Cyber cells alone are not sufficient, we should have cyber crime fighting tools and interaction facilities with other states. Everyday new forms of cyber crimes are being discovered,” Punnoose told reporters.

Speaking after inaugurating the national seminar organised by the City Police to mark the Cyber Safety Day, he also said police personnel should change their attitude and be technologically competent to fight the cyber crimes.

He further said that cyber training facility for police personnel would be started in the near future.
