The 2006 Crisis

This site was inspired by the events that culminated in the tragic disintegration of the rule of law in 2006. UNPol was remobilised in response to the political violence and social tensions and this is an archive of the regular security reports.

UNPol in East Timor Security Briefing 3 August 2007



This is a broadcast of the UN Police in Timor-Leste to provide you with information about the security situation around the country.

The overall security situation across the country remains volatile.

Last night, UNPol received three reports of rock throwing in the neighborhoods of Comoro, Fatuhada and Bairo Pite.  In all three cases, UNPol was dispatched to the scene and brought the situation under control.  One injury was sustained in Comoro.

At 0250 hrs this morning, UNPol received another report of rock throwing and burning of tires near the Audian Hotel.  UNPol patrolled the area.

Today, in Dili UNPol conducted 24 patrols.  No serious incidents were reported throughout the day.

UNPol, PNTL and the ISF are working together to provide security to the people of Timor-Leste. The UNPol Election Security Plan is currently in Phase Four, the post-elections phase. UNPol, PNTL and the Formed Police Units remain deployed and are on stand-by for any post-elections clashes or victory processions. The International Stabilization Forces are also on stand-by, ready to be deployed upon request.

The police would like to remind the people of Timor-Leste that they require valid driving licenses before they are allowed to drive on the roads. All vehicles should also display valid license plates. These measures are in place to help ensure road safety.

The Police advise to avoid traveling during the night to the most affected areas. Please report any suspicious activities.  You can call 112 or 7230365 to contact the police 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
