Crucially, the Community Police Committees will play a vital role in updating this information by reporting any changes in residency, including both arrivals and departures."By promptly reporting changes in residency, these committees enable us to effectively track individuals potentially engaged in criminal activities, extremism, drug peddling, or even underworld operations," said Acting Police Chief Deshabandu Thennakoon.The initiative further addresses the issue of anonymous rentals, often exploited by criminals for temporary hideouts, he added.</blockquote>
