Bekasi - Bekasi Metro Police Commissioner General Sumarni invites residents to install surveillance cameras or CCTV in their respective neighborhoods, because it is considered effective in maintaining community security and order (kamtibmas) in the local area.

He said the presence of surveillance cameras also helps the police in identifying perpetrators of crimes and preventing criminal acts, in addition to serving as a monitoring tool that can provide a sense of security for residents.

"We invite all people to work together to maintain kamtibmas. One of the efforts that can be done is by installing CCTV in the residential area. This will greatly help monitor the situation and prevent unwanted actions," he said in Cikarang, Sunday.

He stated that community cooperation with the police was very important in creating a safe and conducive environment. The existence of surveillance cameras equipped with recording data can be valid evidence if an incident or crime occurs.

He gave an example of a case of severe abuse in the form of pouring hard water that occurred on Jalan Bumi Sani Permai, Setiamekar Village, South Tambun District, Bekasi Regency some time ago.

In this case, surveillance camera footage around the scene played a major role in helping the police track down and arrest the perpetrator.

"CCTV is very helpful when there is an incident and makes it easier for us to uncover the case," he said.

The Police Chief hopes that this invitation will receive a positive response from the community. "Security is a shared responsibility. With mutual cooperation and active participation from residents, we can create a safer environment," he said.
