In the days leading up to Tet, the demand for entertainment and travel increases, posing a potential risk of insecurity and social disorder. Task Force 1311 coordinates with professional departments and the Youth Patrol Team of Hue City Police to simultaneously launch operations, strengthen patrols, inspections, and handle violations, especially street crime and violations of traffic safety at night.
Prevention early, from afar
Lieutenant Colonel Ha Thi Sy - Deputy Head of the Criminal Police Department of Hue City Police said that, implementing the peak period of ensuring security and order to serve people celebrating Tet, force 1311 has developed specific plans, arranged forces and vehicles to patrol the area tightly, not allowing criminals to take advantage of activities.
Task forces focus on patrolling at key routes and areas; promptly detecting and handling acts of theft, robbery, and snatching of property at night. At the same time, functional forces strengthen control over groups of young people driving large displacement motorbikes gathering, swerving, zigzagging, revving engines, causing traffic unsafety.
According to records, on many central roads, force 1311 maintains continuous patrols. Every night, working groups make records of 15 - 20 violations, mainly for the offense of not wearing helmets, driving vehicles without license plates, not having a driver's license, and violating alcohol concentration.
According to statistics, since the peak period was implemented, the forces have coordinated to handle nearly 300 cases of violations among teenagers, temporarily seized dozens of vehicles, and prevented many conflicts from arising.
