The Rwanda National Police (RNP), operating in the Southern Province, has continued conducting awareness campaigns aimed at preventing and combating crime in collaboration with local communities, local authorities, the Rwanda Investigation Bureau (RIB), and the Ministry of Gender and Family Promotion (MIGEPROF).
The campaign is being carried out under the theme: “Rwandan citizen, take the lead in preventing crimes such as livestock and crop theft, child defilement, genocide ideology, and the production and consumption of substandard alcoholic drinks. Do not remain silent when you witness unlawful acts, because security is a shared responsibility.”
