However, the issue of extorting money from taxi drivers has been a serious challenge for authorities of the LNP to overcome. Three of the Police officers were seen taking money from drivers as the drivers made U-turns. All of the Police officers seen collecting money from drivers could not be identified because none of them had badge numbers except for one who had badge number 0483. Petty traders in the commercial district of Red-Light are also victims of extortion by men in Police uniforms. Many believed that the Police action of collecting money from taxi drivers and marketers is due to the low salaries being paid to them by the LNP.
