Flying Squad sub-units across the country have done a commendable job in fighting crime, but some of their officers’ methods and tactics have not always been above board. There have been numerous cases of rogue officers committing crimes, thus tainting the image of the entire police service. Brute force is not always a guarantee that crime will be eliminated.

There is much work for the investigative unit of the police service and others to do.
