This is a broadcast of the UN Police in Timor-Leste to
provide you with information about the security situation around the country.
The situation around the country has generally been calm,
although there has been a murder in Hera and leakage of a hazardous substance
in Dili Seaport area.
Yesterday evening, a 40-year-old man was murdered in Hera
after a domestic argument. The suspect surrendered himself to the police and
has been conveyed to Dili Detention Centre. The National Investigation Division
has examined the crime scene and collected evidence.
Today in Dili, UNPol attended a total of six incidents and
made a total of 51 patrols. The only serious incident involved the leakage of hydrochloric
acid gas from a container in the Seaport in the early hours of the morning. All
the roads in the vicinity have been cordoned off by UNPol, ISF and PNTL.
However, chemical experts have concluded that the situation does not warrant
evacuation of the IDP camp opposite the port.
Also early in the morning, one male was stabbed and
seriously injured in Mascarinas after disagreement with an acquaintance. He has
been taken to hospital and his condition is stable.
In the Districts, there have been no reports of any serious
security incidents. In Ermera, reports of a kidnapping of 20-year-old man
yesterday turned out to be false.
The Elections Security Plan is currently in phase four,
which covers the period after elections. UNPOL and PNTL are remaining in their
allocated sectors until after the results are announced. Their tasks include
transporting sensitive ballot materials and responding to any unrest connected
with the declaration of results.
The Police advise to avoid traveling during the night to the
most affected areas. Report any suspicious activities and avoid traveling the
areas affected by disturbances. Call 112 or 7230365 to contact the police 24
hours a day, seven days a week.
This has been a daily broadcast of the UN Police in
Timor-Leste, for the people of Timor-Leste.
