The city of Colombo will come under tight police surveillance from next month (July) with the installation of security cameras on certain main roads and at junctions.
Senior DIG Gamini Navaratne told The Island yesterday that a private company has been contracted to install the security cameras in prominent places in Colombo.
"One hundred and twenty one cameras will be installed, and we have already decided on 28 places where they will be placed. There will also be a central monitoring station manned by qualified Police personnel who will be in radio contact," Navaratne said. He declined to reveal further details.
Traffic offenses and criminal activities will come under surveillance through these cameras.
