The Provincial Steering Committee for Crime Prevention and Control, Social Evils and Building the Movement for the Whole People to Protect National Security (Steering Committee 138) informed that in the first quarter of 2024, many types of crimes in the province became complicated, increasing compared to the same period in 2023.
Police raided a cockfighting ring in Hamlet 6, Vinh Vien A Commune, Long My District.
Specifically, there were 87 social order crimes, an increase of 14 cases, of which the number of types of crimes increased such as murder, rape of people under 16 years old, fraud, property appropriation, resisting law enforcement officers, and robbery. There were 31 drug crimes detected, an increase of 10 cases compared to the same period.
According to Colonel Nguyen Van Gia, Deputy Director of the Provincial Police, one of the reasons is that crime prevention measures have not been coordinated and directed strongly by some members of the Provincial Steering Committee 138 and the local Steering Committee 138.
Lieutenant Colonel Le Van Khai, Deputy Head of the Drug Crime Investigation Police Department of the Provincial Police, said: "The situation of buying, selling, transporting, storing, and organizing illegal use of drugs in the province continues to be complicated, in which illegal use of drugs in motels and karaoke bars is increasingly common, accounting for 42% of the total number of drug crimes; they operate quite secretly, without a fixed location."
According to the police, the crime situation in the coming time will continue to be complicated, because all types of crimes will continue to operate in a sophisticated manner; temporary conflicts, especially among teenagers, are always latent; while many localities have not yet resolutely implemented preventive and combat measures.
Colonel Nguyen Van Gia said that in order to prevent all kinds of crimes, in the coming time, the Provincial Steering Committee 138 will strengthen social prevention work, implement solutions to improve the effectiveness of managing addicts, illegal drug users, people with mental illness, and people showing signs of psychosis "stoned". Advise the Party Committee and authorities at the same level to thoroughly resolve conflicts among the people. Convert the propaganda state from traditional manual to modern, promote the application of information technology. At the same time, improve the effectiveness of receiving, handling crime reports, denunciations and recommendations for prosecution at the commune level.
“In particular, we will enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of state management of security and order, especially the management of weapons, explosives, support tools and business investment sectors with conditions on security and order. Focus on effectively exploiting software and applications on the National Population Database platform and effectively implementing Project No. 06 of the Government . Strengthen coordination and information exchange with units and localities to proactively prevent, stop early, remotely, and effectively combat all types of crimes,” emphasized Colonel Nguyen Van Gia.
