May 08 - RGP Clamps Down on Tobacco Activity
In an effort to clamp down on tobacco related activity in a number of housing Estates, the RGP has been carrying out ‘Operation Kalia’, an intelligence led operation, which targets specific areas based on informed assessments.
In April, a total of twenty four tobacco related arrests were made, including c6 arrests for concealment of tobacco along Winston Churchill Avenue, 2 arrests for possession of a commercial quantity of tobacco along Winston Churchill Avenue, 8 arrests for possession by the ICC, 2 arrests along Europa Road, 3 by Eastern Beach, one on Devil’s Tower Road, one at Europa Point and one in Glacis Estate.
The RGP has today insisted that they are committed to providing a safer working and living environment for our community, and will continue to work towards tackling issues of public concern, such as tobacco related activity in partnership with relevant agencies, such as HM Customs.
