Deputy commander of regional police division #6, superintendent ravindra stanley, took the lead in a community outreach initiative on thursday (january 11) in the #2 village (brehaspat street) of east canje, berbice.

Mr. Asheik from the #2 neighbourhood democratic council and several other police ranks also participated in the outreach.

Issues highlighted and addressed during the community engagement included:

Noise nuisance: residents’ concerns about noise disturbances were acknowledged and strategies were discussed to mitigate such issues.
Thieves in abandoned houses: the presence of thieves in vacant properties was raised, and superintendent stanley assured the community that appropriate measures would be taken to address this concern.
Community policing group establishment: there was a consensus on the need for a community policing group within the community, and plans were discussed to facilitate its formation.
Superintendent stanley and the team ensured that all raised concerns, along with any additional issues, were thoroughly addressed, and appropriate arrangements were made to resolve existing matters. The outreach aimed not only to address immediate concerns but also to build trust and collaboration between law enforcement and the community.
