The facial recognition program (Facial Recognition System, FRS) has been finalized at Karachi Airport by FIA.
Through the system, passengers involved in crimes can be prevented from escaping abroad. The system will verify passengers through photograph and if any passenger in any crime if involved, the alarm system will be activated when he enters the airport, due to which he will not be able to escape back or abroad.
Sources say that this system was installed a year ago, but no organization has taken it over and was not ready to do it, after which the warranty of the system has also expired.
The responsibility of the system has been taken and the FIA officials will be posted on duty in the control room, ID will be allotted to the officials posted on duty in the control room.
All the preparations in this regard have been completed and in a couple of days, this system will start working and the legal framework has been made in this regard.
According to FIA, this system is currently linked to NADRA, going forward it will also be linked to the criminal database of the police.
