Crimes Unit
Superintendent Crime Simpson Deidenang
The Nauru Police Force Crimes Unit employs highly trained and
experienced investigators across it's sub-units: Criminal
Investigations (CIU), Domestic Violence (DV), Drugs, Cybercrime,
Assault, Theft and Forensic and Transnational Crime (TSU).
The main focus of the Crime Units (CU) is on developing
intelligence, and investigations. This intelligence supports both
the Nauru Police Force uniformed operations and prioritised
criminal investigations.
Officers work closely with partners including the Prosecutions
office and the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions
(DPP).
Over the past year, our crime prevention and investigation work
has resulted in a 34% increase in asset recovery and
disruption.
We aim to keep people safe by preventing harm to both
individuals and communities, by increasing the capacity and
resilience of neighbourhoods vulnerable to criminality, reducing
re-offending and preventing crime.
This includes hosting the regular Radio Nauru show "Police Beat"
to engage and educate communities on a range of crime prevention
topics in Nauruan language.
We work with partner agencies to detect offenders and strive to
protect the most vulnerable by frustrating, disrupting and
dismantling groups involved in criminal activity.
"My team and I are proactively at YOUR service, 24/7. Let's work
together to make Nauru a safer place."
