GOVERNOR PAID SURPRISE VISIT TO POLICE STATIONS
The Governor, Sir Murray MacLehose, paid a surprise visit this
afternoon to Hong Kong Island District Police Headquarters and to Western
Police Station.
He showed particular interest in the whole procedure of crime reporting
and how members of the public reported crime to the police.
Accompanied by the Commissioner of Police, Mr. C.P. Sutcliffe, the
Governor first visited Hong Kong Island District Headquarters, where he inspected
the 999 emergency control room and the Traffic Office.
Later the Governor went to the Western Police Station, where he was
met by the Divisional Superintendent, Mr. L. Power.
Again, Sir Murray was keenly interested in the crime reporting
system, and the procedures which are in use.
He wished to see for himself some of the day-to-day problems with
which the police have to deal.
He visited the Criminal Investigation Office before being given a
final briefing on police matters by Assistant Divisional Superintendent,
Mr. D.T. Emmett.
