The purpose of the use of the CCTV is to monitor public places, where they are installed to assist in the prevention and detection of crime. The completion of phase I, of this innovative project, will mark a significant point in what is a complex and intricate project. The program works have been huge and we are grateful to the CCTV project team for all their hard work.
We are also actively using the CCTV system for gathering information, supporting patrols within the KMP area, directing investigations, tackling anti-social and criminal behavior, which range from nuisance to assaults and wounding, and other offences such as burglary, robbery and murder. The recordings show the whole incident from the point the offender began to commit an offence to the end.
