But, while the police are managing a downturn in crime right now, they still have to deal with the bruising instances of alleged police wrongdoing.

In just the past week, they've had to commence criminal prosecution against two of their own for allegations sex crimes, one of which reportedly happened right inside a police station.

The commissioner commented on those cases saying that the criminal charges that these officers now face is an expression of the department's no-nonsense approach to allegations of wrong doing by police:

Allen Whylie, Commissioner of Police

"As you know the department is a little over 2,000 strong, its 2,000 different individuals with different personalities. The incident that took place were 2 terrible incidents that should have never occurred. The officers both knew better not only as a police officer but as an individual. And they chose to do wrong and the department confronted it head on when it was reported to us. We did our investigation and where the evidence was found, we dealt with both officers. They have both been charged, they have both been interdicted. It is not the first time these incidents have occurred, it won't be the last because individual officers make choices and sometime they make the wrong choices. But once it reaches us, it is not condone and exhaust our investigation and if we are able to deal with it, we deal with them."

And while the usually quiet commissioner can be commended for his zeal, we stress that these 2 officers are innocent until proven guilty in court.
