The One Day Police and Director Public Prosecution (DPP) workshop was this morning officially officiated by the Acting Commissioner of Police Juki Fong Chew.
The Acting Commissioner said the workshop presents a good opportunity to look back and learn from all the shortfalls and look ahead towards improving the work status of 2024.
“The challenges and shortfalls we face are no secret. They will either pop up through complaints against services or in court. When they do, fingers will point back to us and questions raised about our ability to perform our duties,” said Mr Chew.
The workshop which is been held at the Nakasi Police Station Training room consists of more than 150 participants from around the country.
“We owe it to the victims of crime to ensure they are not further victimized by seeing their perpetrator walk free as a poor result of conduct of investigations.”
The Acting Commissioner reminded everyone that Police work is gauged on successful prosecutions and the expectation from the public will be high as they demand justice.
Mr Chew also acknowledged the presence of the Acting DPP, Mr John Rabuku and the New Zealand Police for supporting the workshop.
