Social media site Facebook is proving to be a helpful platform to the police force around the country. Delhi and Kolkata police are known to be very active online. A recent incident in Bangalore has highlighted the usefulness.

A post on March 11th had a photograph with the following caption, ‘On Saturday afternoon I was crossing the road with 2 of my female friends at the signal in front of Raheja residency, these two boys started eve teasing them. I have taken a photo of them, along with the bike number. I hope the police takes action against them. The girls are willing to testify as well. I hope the Bangalore Police takes action...and make my city safer again.’

The reply from the Bangalore Police came on Wednesday, ‘We are glad to inform you that the two accused have been identified and are currently in police custody for further interrogation.’
