The Fiji Police Band is always a crowd favourite during the festive season, and they had visited communities in the Northern and Western Divisions spreading some festive cheer.
Chief Operations Officer, Acting Assistant Commissioner of Police Livai Driu says during the week leading up to Christmas, operations were also focused on community policing efforts through various means.
He says it was also an opportunity for the people to thank the officers for the work they have done throughout the year.
The Chief Operations Officer says Police officers also dug deep into their own pockets to give back to the less fortunate and conducted visitations to orphanages and old people’s homes in the spirit of togetherness and love.
He says, the organization is truly appreciative of the support shown towards officers around the country, and visitations to community leaders, crime prevention committees and business operators continue through the Divisional Managers Community Policing.
Driu says Community policing is an important element of policing, and they appreciate all those who have come on board to work with Police in reducing crime and improving community relationships and building partnerships will remain a key priority for operations.
