Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. In a world where digitisation has become the new norm, the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) has resolved to keep pace with the fast-changing world of technology to fight crime.
On Thursday, 27 police officers received drone pilot certificates, an additional skill which enables them to track criminals using drone technology.
“The Commissioner-General of Police’s thrust of modernising the ZRP through the electronic traffic management system (ETMS) and use of technology in crime management is certainly taking effect,” the ZRP posted on its X handle.
The ETMS uses electronic cameras and sensors to identify traffic offenders.
Beyond traffic monitoring, the system can detect loitering, pickpocketing, and crowd gatherings, which helps reduce crime and extend its utility to public safety.
