Besides, SIPA also currently focuses on the further development of its Special Support Unit (SSU).
“In addition, we are very keen to continue to promote the Krimolovci hotline, which is key to foster cooperation between police and citizens, such as to enhance the efficiency of police investigations,” Lisinovic went on.
“One of our priorities is also to strengthen our Public Relations Department, as media are very important partners to both inform the public about our achievements, but also to encourage people’s trust in the work of police agencies,” Lisinovic concluded.
