Five arrested after Are residing Facial Recognition deployment in south London

As piece of our ongoing commitment to hear to our communities and cope with crime of their areas, we deployed our Are residing Facial Recognition (LFR) know-how on the streets of Lewisham and Catford the previous day, Tuesday, 26 March.

There maintain been 5 arrests all by this operation – two for rape, one for breaching a Sexual Afflict Prevention Justify, one for breach of dwelling detention curfew and one for pills offences.

LFR is a precision know-how that enables pictures of a individual passing the deployment to be as in contrast against a bespoke watchlist of oldsters that the police love to be in contact to. When a match is made an alert is generated. An officer will evaluate the match and establish if they love to be in contact to the person.
