Boasting in great detail about how they caught a bottom-tier expendable from some gang of criminals...that's usually not a sign that the police actually care about stopping the gang's "crimes".
The article does say that they pin pointed the potential culprits to a few seats, followed through, waited for the culprit to repeat their act and then catch him red-cameraed.
The method worked.
Of course, it worked well most likely because the angle was extreme enough to narrow it down to a small set of seats. But it is also true that cammers would not dare to record it from a well vantaged location for the fear of being called out.
If the film is popular, there will be reasonably filled theaters anyway (India has a billion people)
If the film is not popular, why bother.
If you want to wait for the film to run through until the theaters are empty, why bother as it will definitely end up on some streaming platform, and someone will upload a 4k quality torrent.
I don't get the appeal of these Cams in the first place. If a movie is worthwhile watching do you really want to do so in washed out shaky low res with flat audio with some bonus popcorn munching noise?

Also, if the public knows that one is not safe even if there are no CCTVs, then piracy may be reduced.
