The Police Administration has made good its promise of putting in place an arrangement for the receipt of complaints from aggrieved members of the public as a result of unprofessional conduct of personnel.<\/p>\n

In
\nthis direction the administration has activated the following hotlines to
\nenable members of the public, especially motorists and passengers, to reach the
\npolice authorities on their experiences with officers on the road where
\nnecessary.<\/p>\n

The numbers are 055 032 3323
\n(voice calls and SMS only) 027 500 0156 (voice calls and SMS only) and 020 663
\n9121 (Whatsapp\/ videos only)<\/p>\n

A statement issued and signed by
\nthe Director-General of Public Affairs,\u00a0Assistant Commissioner of Police,
\nMr David Eklu, said that had become necessary as a result of complaints about
\npolice unprofessional conduct while on duty.<\/p>\n

\u00a0It said the activation of
\nthe complaint numbers followed directives issued by the Inspector General of
\nPolice (IGP) last October, regarding measures to check such complaints.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll road users are encouraged
\nto send videos of police misconduct, including pictures, Whatsapp, text
\nmessages and voice calls on police unprofessional conduct and good conduct
\nworth emulating,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n

\nwere mandated to act on behalf of the police with regard to road and
\ntraffic-related issues.<\/p>\n
