Police officers have been reminded to treat members of the public with respect.

Acting Commissioner of Police Rusiate Tudravu made this statement during the Fiji Police Force thanksgiving church service in Nasinu yesterday.

He said 2020 was a challenging year with increased operational demand and police officers had to put in more effort which resulted in the reduction of the overall crime rate.

However, he said there was a need for improvement in the manner police carried out their duties.

“I would like to thank you all for the work done last year, but we cannot dwell too much in the past with 2021 being our year to improve service delivery to the people of Fiji,” Mr Tudravu said.

He said members of the public deserved better services from the police.

“We need to change the culture of how we treat people and it starts from the basics of treating people with respect.

“We must serve everyone irrespective of their status with respect and humility and learn to absorb the pressure that comes with our work.”

Mr Tudravu reminded the officers that they existed to serve and help those in trouble and in need.
