in5points
Bombay High Court ordered DGP to conduct statewide review of CCTV systems in Maharashtra police stations.
Footage sought in a case was unavailable because Ghatkopar Police Station retained recordings for only six months.
The court noted its earlier orders to expand CCTV coverage and increase storage capacity to preserve recordings for up to 18 months.
The DGP must report on CCTV functioning, storage capacity, and compliance with the court's 2022 directions.
The next hearing is scheduled for August 10, 2025.
