I have observed that there is a lot of indiscipline but we are a disciplined force and we have to behave as such. &#8220;Let&#8217;s stand up and enforce discipline. I expect you from here to do so to your subordinates. Some police officers do not respect or recognise the Botswana flag, something that as a police officer should be their number one priority. We need to empower our officers with resources but we cannot empower people who are not disciplined,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>He added that the only way the service can achieve its goals towards fighting crime is when they have disciplined officers. &#8220;Recently when addressing a kgotla meeting I was told that a police officer was assaulted by members of the public, if an officer could be beaten by a civilian, it shows that people are not safe at all.<\/p>\n<p>However, I think that the officer is not well trained or such people may be aware of his weaknesses which is not okay,&#8221; Mmusi said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/botswana\">Botswana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Botswana.
