CHENNAI: The Chennai Police will soon have a cyber laboratory of its own to probe complaints relating to Internet offences, said Commissioner of Police G. Nanchil Kumaran.
Speaking at an Information Security Exhibition and Conference here on Saturday, Mr. Kumaran said that at present the police had to rush to Hyderabad for assistance whenever such offences were reported.
Expressing concern over unethical cyber behaviour among youths and professionals, Mr. Kumaran said a new police training academy coming up near here was equipped to impart computer training to new recruits.
Computer experts were of the opinion that the Information Technology Act 2000 needed changes as it had only a limited scope in its present form.
Earlier, Nokia country head G.K. Chakrapani said by the year-end the number of mobile phones in the world would touch the 3-billion mark.
