UNPol Daily Security Briefing 10 January 2008 - This is a
broadcast of the UN Police in Timor-Leste to provide you with information about
the security situation around the country.
The security situation in Timor-Leste has been calm.
Today in Dili, police responded to five incidents, none of
which were serious.
Yesterday (Wednesday) in Dili, police arrested seven people:
four for rock throwing, one for attempted murder, and one in relation to a
public disturbance. The remaining arrest was the execution of an outstanding
arrest warrant. The security situation in Dili last night was mostly calm.
On Wednesday in Baucau, a thirty-one-year-old man was
arrested for threatening a police officer in Tirilolo New Town.
Community police officers are visiting the Kunain and Matai
in Covalima district with a view to helping prevent further outbreaks of
violence. Land boundary disputes, and ethnic, linguistic and political
differences, have been a longstanding cause of tension between the two
communities.
The police advise to avoid travelling 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.
