Two cities of China, Foshan and Zhongshan, are using Blockchain to keep a track on the offenders on Parole. They are transcending the previously set boundaries to track the offenders on parole through a Blockchain-based community correction service system.

The system will enable local police, prosecutors, and court officials to share data on offenders on a real-time basis. So, it will help in having a better supervision on the offenders, told officials on a press release. Adding further, the officials said that the system has the data analysis power to detect the possibility of criminals re-offending. It can perform background data analysis to predict the action trajectory and current situation of the offenders with ease.

One of the best advantages of this blockchain-led community correction system is that hassle related to daily reporting to the officers will reduce to a much extent as they can monitor the entire situation on a real-time basis. Another unique selling point of the system is that it can personalize the set of data collection and development for each criminal individually. With that being said, the officials can decide whether a criminal needs daily monitoring or not.

The officials are yet to make the technical details of the platform public. However, as an application, it will prioritize the importance of Blockchain as a concept to a new extent, opines the officials.
