Police’s Operation Basali Campaign will kick off in the coming weeks.

According to Senior Assistant Commissioner of Police Bohang Lintle Phasumane, this crime prevention campaign, which is facilitated by LMPS women’s network¹, will take place in May and November.

LMPS Women’s Network, an affiliate of SADC police forces, was founded in 2007 to empower women police officers, to fight gender based violence and facilitate peace building.

ACP Phasumane indicated that, in 2013, the SADC police management gathered in Namibia and agreed that this operation should focus on crimes against women.
