QUESTION 1:
1.1 Why was community policing introduced? (2 Marks)
1. Strengthening Relationships Between Police and the Public
Community policing was introduced to foster closer ties between law enforcement and
local communities. When officers are present and involved in everyday community life,
trust can grow, leading to better collaboration. For example, when police participate in
local gatherings, it makes them more approachable to residents.
2. Encouraging Cooperation to Prevent Crime
Another reason for community policing is to involve the public in crime prevention. By
working together, police and community members can solve issues before they escalate
into criminal activities. For instance, when neighbors report unusual behavior early, it
allows the police to take action and prevent crimes from happening.
1.2 Who plays a role in creating policies? (6 Marks)
