A team from the Southern Division Community Policing Unit is currently in Kadavu, visiting the nine districts in a bid to set up crime prevention committees.

Operation Vueti Sauca came about following a visit to the Kadavu Provincial Council Office in November last year, where the nine Tikina chiefs expressed their support for the launch of crime prevention committees on the island.

Divisional Manager Community Policing Superintendent of Police Ruci Nasemira says the team will be visiting the nine tikinas to train and empower the selected crime prevention committees with the aim of enhancing collaboration and inclusivity focusing on crime prevention on the island of Kadavu.
