00:00Speaking to TV6 on condition of anonymity, some officers at the Sangre Grandi Municipal Police Post have raised concerns about
00:07a lack of essential resources and problems with the station's facilities.
00:12They say the post has no dedicated municipal police vehicles and relies on a single vehicle assigned by the Sangre
00:18Grandi Regional Corporation, which is reserved for administrative duties.
00:23According to the officers, the shortage has limited their ability to conduct patrols.
00:27They also report inadequate facilities for officers working overnight shifts, saying there are no beds available for them to rest.
00:34The officers say they have also requested additional chairs because of insufficient seating.
00:40The concerns extend to the physical condition of the station.
00:43Officers say the central air conditioning unit serving the charge room, where they spend much of their time, has been
00:49out of service for approximately three months.
00:51Visible mould on the charge room walls and non-functioning intercoms are among the other issues they have identified.
00:58TV6 attempted to contact Acting Commissioner of Police with responsibility for the municipal police, Wayne Meister, for comment.
01:04However, those attempts were unsuccessful up to news time.
