The Royal Solomon Islands Police Force (RSIPF) will be focusing more on alcohol-related issues this year.
Police Commissioner Frank Prendergast during last week’s media conference said tackling alcohol-related crimes including family violence are important and will be under police microscope this year.
“Police records have indicated a surge in the number of such crimes towards the end of last year.
“We are going to collaborate closely with the community to address these issues,” Mr Prendergast said.
