Mumbai, November 04: The CBI, while inaugurating the Vigilance Week today, said over half of its traps are registered through SMS.
“The SMS campaign started last year is a huge success and out of the 26 traps registered until now, the complaints of over half have been received through SMS,” CBI Joint Director Rishiraj Singh told reporters here.
“This includes the case registered against Sarobjot Singh, son of Buta Singh,” Singh said.
A person calling or sending the message need not reveal his identity if he does not wish to, he said.
“One of our officers will take down the complaint without asking any questions after which we start our investigations,” Singh said.
The CBI has this year registered 26 trap cases against officials of railways, Income Tax officials, Customs and Central Excise officers.
