“The joint search produced no illegal items or contraband. As the Federation’s primary law enforcement agency, the maintenance of peace, law, and order are paramount priorities for the RSCNPF. All reports made to the Police are regarded with a high level of importance, and even more so when the presence or use of illegal weaponry is [allegedly] involved.
Thus, the Force’s staunch “zero tolerance” stance to those who persistently choose to create a life outside our nation’s legal parameters continues to bear fruit. Our quest for justice will neither slow nor cease,” police say.
The local authorities continue to encourage persons who may have information of criminal activity to call the nearest Police station, or the Crime Stoppers’ Hotline, 707. It was also shared that the RSCNPF “will maintain a high level of vigilance as we work to safeguard the well-being of our communities and the communal assets within that serve and empower our people.”
