As part of the planned services prepared by the police commissioner of Vibo Valentia, Rodolfo Ruperti, the State Police, in a synergistic action with the other law enforcement agencies, has intensified the control activity of the territory, especially in some areas of the city, in order to prevent the commission of crimes of a predatory nature and against property, and other forms of widespread crime.
The intensification of these controls in some areas also developed as a result of a meeting held between representatives of the “Moderata Durant” neighborhoodthe police commissioner Ruperti and the police officer, during which the citizens had expressed their concerns about the various thefts that had occurred in that area.
A situation that led to a specific implementation plan for prevention and surveillance activities in the Moderata Durant area, aimed at guaranteeing greater safety and tranquility for citizens.
The services set up for this purpose involved crews of the Flying Squad of the Police Headquarters, agents of the “Calabria Centrale” Crime Prevention Department of Vibo Valentia, as well as patrols of other law enforcement agencies, leading in a short time to a notable number of checks , which made it possible to prevent the commission of further property crimes in that area.
In recent months, over 1,000 checks have been carried out in the Moderata Durant neighborhood and in the immediately surrounding areas.
Furthermore, in the Moderata Durant area, in recent days, State Police officers have subjected a car with a person on board to check. The suspicious attitude led the operators to subject him to a personal and vehicular search, the outcome of which thus allowed them to find, inside the car, a knife for which the person provided no justification. Reason for which the s was proceededseizure of the knife and the consequent reporting of the subject to the competent judicial authority.
Again in relation to the activities connected to the prevention of crimes, the police commissioner also issued two mandatory warnings against two people, with specific precedents in crimes against property, seen wandering around in a suspicious manner near some homes, and without providing a justified reason for their presence in the area.
A similar measure had been adopted against two other subjects, monitored by personnel of the Flying Squad of the Police Headquarters in the neighborhoods surrounding the Moderata Durant area, who had not provided any justification for their presence in the area and who were already burdened by police records .
The mandatory expulsion order is a provision which orders those who do not have a connection with the territory, be it work, residence or otherwise, to leave the Municipality where they have been checked, raising suspicions about their presence in the territory.
The planned prevention activity has thus made it possible to note that no incidents of theft have occurred in the Moderata Durant area in the last period.
