The Central Crime Branch in Bengaluru has launched one‑on‑one counseling sessions aimed at helping rowdy‑sheeters address their conduct and reintegrate into society.
The Central Crime Branch (CCB) in Bengaluru has announced the launch of individual counseling for rowdy‑sheeters, a group known for petty crime and local disturbances.
The initiative, introduced at a press briefing, seeks to provide tailored guidance to offenders, helping them understand the consequences of their actions and encouraging positive behavioral change.
Counseling will be conducted by trained officers and psychologists at designated police stations across the city, with the aim of reducing recidivism and fostering community safety.
Officials say the program is part of a broader strategy to address the root causes of street crime and promote rehabilitation rather than solely punitive measures.
