AHMEDABAD,March27,2012: The city crime branch has resorted to social media to disseminate information about missing children by recently launching a Facebook page carrying details of missing kids. At the moment, the page has two major cases handed over to crime branch for investigation - the disappearance of Kartik Rajendran and Vishwa Patel. The printable poster shows the prize amounts along with short details and contact numbers. "Facebook is very popular amongst youngsters. Thus, we thought of giving it a try so that we can reach to maximum number of users. We intend to post relevant updates at regular intervals and also integrate more such cases. A website for the missing children is on the anvil on which users can anonymously provide us any relevant information," said a senior crime branch official. Officials said that several posts by Facebook users have already created awareness about missing children in the state.
