MEDAN - Thieves and motorcycle gangs are increasingly troubling in Medan. Chairman of the North Sumatra Provincial DPRD, Baskami Ginting, asked the Medan City Government (Pemot) to install CCTV cameras at points prone to robbery in this area.
"I have asked the Mayor (Bobby Nasution) to install CCTV and street lights in places prone to robbery," Baskami said in Medan, Saturday, quoted from ANTARA.
According to Baskami, the installation of CCTV cameras can minimize acts of robbery that are very disturbing to the people in Medan City and its surroundings.
Currently, he said, the Medan City Government has installed 352 CCTV cameras on detector cameras at 180 points and PTZ cameras at 172 points. This year there is the installation of CCTV surveillance cameras equipped with 15 points in Medan City, especially at intersections and roads.
"In addition, we hope that every proactive police station will carry out patrols in their respective areas, especially at night," said Baskami.
Baskami appreciated the actions of the Medan Polrestabes which secured the perpetrators of the robbery and took measured measures.
"It is a very wise step and must be supported because it is for the security of the community. On behalf of the leadership of the council, I would like to thank the Medan Polrestabes for securing the perpetrators of the robbery," he said.
Previously, the Medan Police Chief Kombes Pol Valentino Alfa Tatareda said that the cases of street crimes in the past month, such as theft with violence and theft of motorized vehicles totaled 140 suspects out of 97 cases.
"Efforts to overcome the rampant acts of robbery, motorcycle gangs, and brawls in the jurisdiction of the Medan Polrestabes will continue to be carried out," he said.
Among them, he explained, stationary patrols targeting motorcycle groups, motorcycle gangs, anticipation of 3C cases (curas, curat, and curanmor), and brawls that occur in the morning, afternoon or evening.
"We will take steps according to the evaluation of the isolation at several points in Medan City," he concluded.
