MOTSHELO JOINT OPERATION TARGETS CRIME AND VANDALISM IN GREATER GABORONE

BPC, in partnership with the Botswana Police Service and several organizations – including BTC, LSC Security, Security Systems, Gaborone City Council, Mascom, and Orange Botswana – recently carried out a successful Motshelo Joint Operation. Coordinated by SSKA Police Station and Mmopane Police Post, the initiative aimed to strengthen collaboration in combating vandalism, theft, and related crimes affecting communities and infrastructure.

The operation mobilized 90 officers from multiple police stations and targeted areas such as Gaborone North, Mmamashia, Mmopane, Ledumadumane, and local scrap metal dealerships. Supported by the Special Support Group’s dog and horse units, teams conducted foot and mobile patrols, vehicle stops, and searches. The increased law enforcement presence acted as a strong deterrent, leading to the questioning of several individuals linked to vandalism and copper theft.The exercise underscored the effectiveness of multi-stakeholder cooperation in maintaining public safety and protecting national assets.
