5. If the enquiry succeeds in tracing the person, he shall forthwith be produced
before the executive or judicial magistrate having jurisdiction, as the case may be.
66. Police may keep Register of Missing Properties:
1. Whenever any Station House Officer receives any information from any person
that any valuable property or security belonging to that person is lost, such officer
may, if satisfied that the value and the nature of the missing article justifies such a
course of action, register the information in a register maintained for the purpose and
may cause such enquiries to be made as may be reasonably necessary to locate the
article.
2. Government may prescribe the charges to be levied for such enquiries.
3. Nothing in this section will be deemed to compel any police officer to make any
enquiries in this regard when he reasonably feels either that the missing article is
trifling in value or that there is no reasonable chance of it being identified and located
or that making any enquiry is either too expensive or time consuming.
67. Police may give Certificates of Non-involvement in Crimes: Whenever
any District Police Chief receives any request from any person that he may be issued
with a certificate to the effect that he is not involved in any crime in his jurisdiction,
the District Police Chief may make such enquiries as he deems fit, and then give such
a certificate after realising such charges as may be fixed by the Government in this
regard.
68. Police may give Security Advice: Whenever any District Police Chief
receives any information that there is any place within his jurisdiction where
extraordinarily large sums of cash or very valuable moveable properties are kept or
that any place of public importance is facing a grave security threat, then he may, on
his own, in consultation with the person or persons in charge of the place concerned,
get a security audit conducted by persons selected by the District Police Chief and on
the basis of such security audit, the persons in charge of the premises may be advised
to take certain steps or take certain precautions to safeguard life and property situated
in the premises.
