As part of the Proactive Preventive Policing Strategy, the K-9 Unit of the Ghana Police Service, with renewed energy, has commenced its outdoor operations.
For the past couple of weeks, personnel with highly-trained security dogs under leash have been strategically positioned across the Capital for operational patrols.
This component of policing is aimed at increasing the visibility of personnel, improving intelligence gathering, tracking of contraband goods and improving upon other aspects of criminal investigations.
Plans are underway to extend this component of Police visibility to other regions.
“We shall continue to pursue multiple Security and Visibility Modules to increase our interactions with the public and aggressively fight crime in our communities,’’ the Police stated.
The Police indicated that their presence is primarily for the people, and reiterated their commitment to serve, and also, the fact that they relied on the help and support from the people to succeed in Policing.
