Officials said the initiative is part of a broader strategy to secure the territory during Christmas and New Year celebrations. Security personnel were deployed to monitor motor parks, event centres, and other hotspots where criminal activity is often reported.
Illegal motor parks and temporary shanties used by criminals were dismantled as part of the exercise. Authorities also dislodged individuals posing as taxi operators who were involved in kidnappings and other offenses.
The FCTA confirmed that multiple arrests have been made and structures sheltering criminals destroyed. Continued monitoring and enforcement are planned to sustain the impact of the sweep.
Transport operators were instructed to verify the identities of all personnel working in motor parks, ensuring that unregistered or suspicious individuals are not allowed to operate.
The initiative has received support from local unions, with leaders praising the effort to restore order and professionalism in transport services. Residents were urged to cooperate with security agencies and report suspicious activities to maintain safety during the holiday season.
