Police have resolved to install Closed Circuit Television – CCTV cameras at all police stations receptions to monitor responses to public security concerns in order to curb complacency.
While giving an update about the murder of social worker Maria Nagirinya and her Boda rider Ronald Kitayimbwa at the police headquarters Naguru, Director of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in police, AIGP Felix Baryamwisaki revealed that the cameras would be for purposes of monitoring the degree of response by police officers from the time a person reports an emergency or crime incident.
Before the camera plan is fulfilled, Police Political Commissar, AIGP Asan Kasigye advised the public to always alert police through its official lines when a reported case is neglected or when someone finds no officer to attend to him/her.
Police once again read out its anti-kidnap lines on which one can call to report kidnap cases. The numbers are; 0800199990, 0800199991 and 0800199992.
The new guidelines come after police confirmed to have arrested its officers (more than 15) for neglecting a case reported by Nagirinya’s family.
