CCTV surveillance system set to improve crime detection across Fiji

It is hoped that a new CCTV surveillance system deployed around Fiji will improve security and crime detection, a news report in the local media has been able to suggest.

The Fiji Police Force is working closely with municipalities around the country to set up the system. They are looking into deploying a system similar to those used overseas that would enable the force to utilise technology to enhance the force’s capabilities in curbing crime.

Police Commissioner Brigadier General Sitiveni Qiliho commented: “We are talking with these countries to come over and conduct studies and to assist us for areas like Suva and the two major areas in the West.

“We know we have companies out there in the private sector that deal with this but we want to look at it from a policing perspective that we sight them and then get the companies in to assist us rather than letting a company to decide what type of cameras to install and where to position them.”

Brig-Gen Qiliho said his main concern was that even though they had reduced overall crime by 9 per cent, burglaries and aggravated robberies were still on the rise.

“We need to target these by increasing the force’s detection rate. In this way, we can take the people responsible to task.”
