Is there not a way to query a database with the ID from a phone?

Why the extra steps?

I am not aware of such thing. May be they didn't want every police to query the database.

But it appears that there is a face recognition app https://youtu.be/l8R6ZwSTLzU?t=105 the guy who is using the app in the video was the interior minister.
