A mobile app for the rapid response and effective crime control in the city was launched by the Metropolitan Police Commissioner Office (MPCO), Ranipokhari on Sunday (July 5, 2015).

Called ‘Hamro Police’, the app enables smart phone users in the Kathmandu Valley to swiftly report incidents of crime and access the nearest police office. The app, which is available on Google Play, helps users receive police alerts and send SMS to report incidents of crime to the police.
