Sub-programme: Crime Prevention is the face of the Department since it constitutes most core policing activities that translate into actual service delivery at ground level, as police stations fall within it. It also entails community and/or sector policing as well as other crime fighting initiatives such as patrols, beats, roadblocks and stop-n- searches. The category of 'crimes dependent on police action for detection' arises from this sub-programme. Basically, most initiatives that employ proactive policing measures aimed at achieving Government's objective of reducing violent/contact crimes, including trio-crimes (robbery, business robbery, and car-jacking), reside within this sub-programme.
