Police Commissioner Allister Guevarro has proposed the integration of WASAβs security and CCTV systems into TTPS Operational Command Centres across divisions.
This came as he met with WASA Chairman Roshan Babwah, CEO Dain Maharaj and others today, to discuss recent incidents of larceny and malicious damage at installations.
The Top Cop assured that all reports involving the theft of critical infrastructure, including cables and pipelines, will be thoroughly investigated.
The meeting also addressed the growing concerns surrounding illegal water trucking and illegal water extraction.
Commissioner Guevarro has since highlighted the potential need for stricter regulatory oversight of the scrap iron industry, alongside the implementation of more severe penalties for offences such as larceny, illegal water extraction, and unlawful water distribution.
Further discussions will focus on enhancing the operational capacity of WASAβs estate constables through targeted training support from the TTPS, to better equip them in responding to emerging security threats.
