People have always complained of police officers turning up late or not at all, once a report is lodged.
I cannot offer any solution until I know the root causes of lateness, but I believe they are overloaded with administrative duties or simply don’t care less.
May I suggest that the police consider introducing an effective civil administrative layer at each of the police stations, which would assist in writing reports, managing vehicles, collecting revenue and compiling regular statistics.
If such arrangements are already in place, they need a shakeup.
