Bulawayo police spokesperson Chief Inspector Precious Simango urged travelling residents to register their homes under the police’s house under supervision facility to curb burglary cases.
She said those who would be travelling can notify the police about their travel arrangements so that they can keep their houses under surveillance. She also urged residents to install burglar bars to deter criminals. Said Simango:
We are urging residents who would be travelling to take advantage of the house under supervision scheme that we are offering as police. Those who would be travelling during this period and want the service can approach the nearest police station to get information on how this facility operates. It is one of the services that we provide through policing. We might be offering the house under supervision facility but we strongly urge residents to increase their home security. They should install burglar bars to deter criminals from tampering with their properties.
