He shares that this crime is particularly in the Papine and Mona areas, by mobile men who are not living in the area.
SSP Nesbeth reported that through investigations progress has been made in nabbing a few perpetrators of these crimes, but he is advising persons to utilize the tracker system which can be downloaded on the phone as the app proves useful in past cases.
