The head of the state police is the Director General of Police (DGP). The current D.G.P. is Lokanath Behera, IPS. The D.G.P. reports to the Chief Minister of Kerala, who is the chief executive of the state.[3][4]

History


There is no authoritative record on the history of Police in ancient Kerala. The literary works of the Sangam period, namely Akamkrithikal, Pathittipattu and Chilppathikaram, depict the ancient policing system. The feudal system which existed in ancient Kerala gave way to a new structure under the Cheras, comprising Thara, Desomand Nadu ruled by Madampi, Desavazhi and Naduvazhi respectively. The semblance of a modern police force was created in the late 19th century in Travancore under the British rule. There was no unified geographical entity as 'Kerala' before 1956. The present Kerala Police Department was formed in the same year by re-organizing and merging of police forces in Travancore-Cochin States and the British Malabar State.[5][6]



Governance


State police Chief is an IPS official with the rank of Director general of police. For the proper administration the Geographical area of state is bifurcated as South Zone and North Zone which is headed by Additional Director General of Police. Further, each zone is divided into two ranges viz Thiruvananthapuram Range & Ernakulam Range, Thrissur Range & Kannur Range respectively which is headed by an Inspector General of Police. There are five Police Commissionerates and 14 Police districts which are headed by District Police Chiefs, rank of Deputy Inspector General of Police / Superintendent of Police ranks as the case is. The Additional Director General of Police are in charge of a particular function like Administration Headquarters, Modernization, PCR, CBCID, Intelligence, Traffic and Training.[7]



Training


Police training is an important aspect in the administration of State police and it is headed by Addl. DGP (Training) and Director, Kerala Police Academy. The training of IPS officers after completion of their training at the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy, Hyderabad, probationary Dy.SPs, probationary SI is carried out by Police Training College, Thiruvananthapuram. Head Constables who are promoted to ASI/SI ranks are also trained in Police Training college.

Crime Branch


Crime Branch Crime Investigation Department (CBCID) is the specialized investigation wing of Kerala Police which investigates cases that are entrusted to it by the State Police Chief or the Government or the High Court of Kerala. They investigate sensational crimes or complicated and serious offences which have statewide ramifications or undetected, which the local police are not able to investigate properly for want of time or skills. The Director General of Police Crimes heads the Crime Branch Investigation Department. The current D.G.P of Crime Branch is A.Hemachandran, IPS[8]

CBCID consists of 3 major wings divided based on the category of cases reported.



  • Hurt & Homicide Wing

  • Organised Crime Wing

  • Economic Offences Wing[9]



Armed Police


Kerala Police has got ten battalions of armed police.[10] "Armed Police" is a slightly confusing nomenclature that has continued for historical reasons. It does not mean that the district police are unarmed. Functionally, the armed police battalions serve as reserve force to be deployed whenever and wherever the district police fall short of manpower in the maintenance of law & order. When so deployed, they function under the control of the district police officers and are returned to their camps as soon as the requirement is over. Unlike district police, they are not permitted to undertake crime investigation work.

The ten battalions with a total strength of about 6,755 are located at different places in the state. They are:



  • Ist Kerala Armed Police - KAP-I (Thrissur Trichur)

  • IInd Kerala Armed Police - KAP-II (Palakkad/Palghat)

  • IIIrd Kerala Armed Police - KAP-III([[Adoor]

  • IVth Kerala Armed Police -KAP-IV(Kannur)

  • Vth Kerala Armed Police -KAP- V(Kuttikkanam)

  • Special Armed Police -SAP (Thiruvananthapuram)

  • Malabar Special Police -MSP (Malappuram)

  • Rapid Response and Rescue Force - RRRF (Pandikkad)

  • India Reserve Battalion - IRBn (Thrissur)

  • State Industrial Security Force -SISF(Thiruvananthapuram)[11]



The Hi-Tech Crime Enquiry Cell


The Hi-Tech Crime Enquiry Cell or cyber cell as it is often called, was created to prevent and detect serious and organized cybercrimes with assistance from other government agencies, the private sector, academic institutions, and foreign counterparts. Cyber Cell generally enquire into matters such as hacking of websites, online cheating, email hacking, Nigerian scams, phishing, source code theft, identity theft, child pornography, social media abuse, mobile phone abuse, loss/theft of mobile phone and a growing list of computer, Internet and mobile phone facilitated crimes.[12]



Kerala Police Cyber Dome

The law enforcement agency is located in Technopark, Thiruvananthapuram, under the constant guidance of Manoj Abraham IPS, he has been holding the Nodal officer position since its inception.

Chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan made an official announcement of the recognition at the 'Cyber Fest 2017' held in the state capital –Thiruvananthappuram on 19 September 2017 on Tuesday. The chief minister will also inaugurate the mobile app developed to create cyber awareness in children and the web application developed by Cyberdome for mobile phone shops and technicians at the function.

  • WhatsApp group

To protect against banking threats, Cyberdome - the technological research and development unit of state police - launched a WhatsApp group platform against digital robbery, the end of July 2017 with the support of Reserve Bank of India, the new initiative has gained national attention since it is proved to be an effective method to stop fraudulent online transactions, according to Cyberdome it is said In the initial ten days of its launch, online scams to the tune of Rs 2.34 lakh could be curbed, and in the first month, it touched Rs 23 lakh. According to Cyberdome nodal officer and Thiruvananthapuram range IG Manoj Abraham CyberDome already received enquiries from the police officials of Maharashtra and Rajasthan on how the Whatsapp platform worked. Officials of all district police cyber cells, cyber police station, Hitech Crime Enquiry Cell and Cyberdome are also members of the Whatsapp group. As soon as they get a complaint, it would be shared on the Whatsapp group so that officials of the concerned bank and trading platform will take immediate steps to block the attempt.
