FAISALABAD, Sept 5: The local Citizen Police Liaison Committee (CPLC) has developed a software to jam stolen and snatched cell phones and now phone jamming service is available in the district.

CPLC chief Muhammad Arif told office-bearers of the Cell Phone Traders Association at a meeting here on Wednesday that the phone jamming service was free and that it had been started with the help of CPLC, Karachi. He said that any stolen or snatched phone could be blocked after fulfilling requirements, adding that cell phones would not be blocked on phone calls.

He said the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority had also been contacted for direct access to phone blockage. He asked people to contact the CPLC for blockage of their stolen or snatched cell phones.
