Why did the police station call to ask for the address?

In order to verify your identity information, the police station calls to ask your address to ensure social order and public safety.

Police station is one of the grass-roots units of public security organs in China, which is mainly responsible for public security prevention and control, criminal investigation and so on. When a related case occurs or identity information needs to be verified, the police station will contact the parties by phone and ask for their address, ID number and other information, so as to better carry out their work. In addition, when the police carry out various law enforcement actions, they also need to verify the identity information of the people to ensure the smooth development of the work and the maintenance of public safety. Therefore, calling the police station to ask for an address does not mean that there is a problem or an illegal act, but a normal law enforcement act.

If you receive a phone call from the police asking for personal information such as address, it is recommended to provide information and ensure the accuracy of the information. At the same time, for issues involving personal rights and interests, you can consult professional lawyers or legal aid centers to safeguard your legitimate rights and interests.
