Over a period of more than six decades, IPJ has carved a niche in the police fraternity covering myriad stories on numerous vital subjects on which the Indian police force works. With collaborative endeavours, the Indian Police Journal has had a great time enriching the reader with well researched articles on contemporary policing, administrative, forensic, HR and police related technical issues. IPJ has been striving hard to promote citizen centric police services as it is widely known to police professionals, forensic practitioners, research scholars, academia, management communities, non- government organization and in the field of correctional administration. This edition compiles numerous articles that help the reader know various facets of police work culture. “Technology and trafficking in persons“, the writer has shed light on the fact that trafficking in persons is an “organized crime, a continuing crime, and a basket of crime.” further writer explains in his article how traffickers are using technology to promote their business and trafficking for commercial sexual exploitation. He has well explained trafficking in persons for forced labour. The article on “ Gender Issues in policing : perspectives and perceptions “ has shown a profound insight into the roles, challenges and perception of women police personnel and gender issues around them. The writer has highlighted the status of women in police in the scenario prevalent. The article on “Illustration through forensic examination of recruitment scam case” by Pranay Bhardwaj has categorically underscored certain aspects emphasizing how recruitment agencies are adopting an online recruitment process for employment of various staff for various posts in order to maintain the equilibrium between need and demand. The article on modern theory of punishment- an analytical study by Dr Caesar Roy elaborated on various theories of punishment such as deterrent theory, retributive, preventive, reformative and expiatory theory. The article on ‘window registry forensic analysis’ written by Priyanka Tomar focuses on how to solve any cyber crime and how investigation plays a vital role in detecting crime. Besides, IPJ time and time again delves deep into numerous modus operandi employed by certain gangs operational in a particular area where they are familiar with topography and factors suited for that crime. ‘Promoting Good Practices and Standards’ I make a special mention of Bawaria crime in Tamilnadu, a piece well documented by SR Jangid IPS. This talks about robbery in the houses located along the national highways from Gummidipondi -Chennai- Bangalore. Use of firearms and steel rods, looting of jewels and cash and electronics goods. How the gang does a quick and thorough recce of the targeted area before commission of crime. The article on “victim-offender relationship and post traumatic stress disorder in incarcerated murderers” cannot be overlooked, this article further explains that crime is an anti- social behaviour and is directed against certain fundamental values. In the criminal justice system, researchers and social scientists have long been interested in murder and murderer. This piece speaks of the remedy of such crime. I am sure that this edition will definitely give readers an in-depth understanding of the problems surfacing on a day-to-day basis with certain reasons for and causes of stress among the uniformed personnel. Above all, the ways and means suggested addressing these grave issues under police personnel commands.
