An online police patrol is comparable to a police post on the internet. The police give advice on how to prevent crime or tackle specific issues. You are also welcome to contact the online police patrol if you want dialogue with the police.
You can contact an online patrol if you have information or tip-offs about crime on the internet.
You cannot report a crime or submit applications for permits/visas/passports, etc to the online police patrol.
Online police patrols are part of our currents efforts to put in place a police presence online. These patrols wish to guide the public on the safe, secure and responsible use of the internet and be a visible police service available to the public online.
