Deshpande warns police after clips show threats of drug traps and location tracking

Another set of viral footage showed police allegedly threatening students with drug‑trap accusations and demanding live location sharing. Deshpande warned the force that today’s youth are tech‑savvy, capable of verifying legal queries through AI tools such as ChatGPT. He recounted how students, when asked for a live location, first consulted the chatbot before responding that the request was unlawful. He added that the generation carrying iPhone 17 Pro Max devices is far ahead of a police force still stuck on older technology.
