The Royal St Christopher and Nevis Police Force have shared some increased measures for the surveillance capabilities of the community. The team of the St Kitts and Nevis police force has shared some steps they have taken in this regard. The Royal St. Christopher and Nevis Police Force (RSCNPF) continues to intensify and expand its efforts to curb incidences of criminal activity in St. Kitts and Nevis.
At last week’s press conference on June 7th, 2023, Commissioner of Police James Sutton outlined several administrative and tactical adjustments the Force recently executed to increase the workforce and their community presence. Among these changes was the High Command’s decision to suspend all personal leave and vacation for Police, significantly increasing the number of community patrols nationwide.
To further implement these changes, the Police Force is also expanding and upgrading its national CCTV monitoring system. This effort began apace on June 10th, 2023, in the McKnight on St. Kitts area with the installation of additional surveillance cameras in key areas. The St Kitts law enforcement Administration will install other surveillance cameras in communities nationwide in the coming weeks.
They also announced that they will update the infrastructure that is currently installed. Through this, they want to ensure law enforcement officers always have the critical technical support they require. The RSCNPF’s primary goal is establishing and maintaining an atmosphere of peace, safety, and security in the Federation.
The administration of St Christopher and Nevis believes that technology, tactics, and tenacity of the Police and other law enforcement agencies are not the only ingredients in any anti-crime recipe. Criminal activity must be combated on all fronts. Society’s collaboration and cooperation are vital elements of the Force’s multifaceted approach to arresting the current situation.
The St Christopher and Nevis Police Force aims to create an environment where criminal elements are perpetually disempowered. Additionally, the team urged the community members to say something if they saw something. The community members must also report any illegal activity they see to law enforcement. They believe that it demonstrates a high level of integrity and personal responsibility.
