Police taskforce teams made up of investigators have been set up in all the four divisions around the country.
Commissioner Sitiveni Qiliho says these taskforce teams set up to address serious crimes have been relentless in their pursuit of criminal elements involved in committing offences such as aggravated robberies and burglaries.
Qiliho says hard work put in by investigators in the Southern Division has seen more than 10 men arrested and produced in court for a series of aggravated robberies and burglary cases within a span of one month.
He says there have also been similar successful investigations regarding aggravated robbery cases and burglaries in the Eastern and Western Division.
Qiliho says the Northern Division has barely reported cases of aggravated robberies and burglaries but a task force will also be on hand to address cases of this nature.
However, the Police Commissioner emphasizes that the work of an investigator cannot be rushed as it can often take weeks or even months to meticulously gather sufficient evidence for a successful outcome.
He says investigators have to sacrifice a lot of their personal time especially if there is a lead in a case occurring outside the typical 8am to 4pm working hours.
