They actually listened and approved the extra patrols plus the new response protocols for Black River and Tamarin so we finally got it done. I am genuinely reeling from the news because it felt like a total uphill battle for so long but keep your eyes on the streets just …

Stop the crime in Mauritius! Especially Crime-Stricken La Preneuse, Black River & Tamarin! Make the neighbourhoods safe.
Final supporters
We Deserve a Safer Neighbourhood!
We are a diverse group of La Preneuse, Tamarin and Black River area residents, upset with the recent dramatic increase in crime. With your help, we want to make the neighbourhood safer. We are asking our neighbours to read and sign this petition asking our elected officials and police department executives to do more to make La Preneuse, Tamarin and Black River a safer place to live, work, shop, and play.
Our community consists of single, married, young, old, and everything in between. We are concerned with our safety and the ones we love. We request some meaningful and effective changes from our elected officials and public servants:
We want more police. We want the criminals caught. When we need the police, we need them to respond quickly. We want police staffing to reach the level it should be at.
We want police to patrol two per car. We want bicycle and foot patrols. We want implementation of a possible ‘Violence Reduction Initiative’ (V.R.I) that would assign additional police during the current crime wave. We want a dedicated, legitimate, and effective police presence to take on these criminals and bring them to justice with more tougher and stringent measures to show them that the police force is a force to be reckoned with.
Let’s stand together as one and end this crime wave! Sign the petition to make a difference!

I just looked at the screen and saw the counter hit one hundred signatures which is honestly kind of surreal because I started this at my kitchen table while feeling totally fed up with the lack of progress in Black River. It feels like people here are finally saying they have had enough of the break-ins and the constant worrying about our streets being unsafe.

I honestly did not think this would take off like it has but seeing the numbers climb confirms that everyone in Black River and Tamarin is just as fed up as I am. It feels like the tide is finally turning and the authorities cannot pretend they do not see us anymore because we are too loud to ignore now.

I want to know that Tamarin, La Preneuse, Riviere Noir are safe places to stay for a holiday. Unless there are more police patrols, surveillance, I will cancel my holidays and urge others to do so.
Tamarin and Black River had now reach a development point that needs to be taken into consideration by authorities. Indeed, the increase of new inhabitants and new houses has not been followed by infrastructures such as Police force.
We live in res project and we need authorities to make us feel safe again. it is unacceptable all that is happening in our region, we need regular police patrol, cameras like in flic en flac , and we want our kids to grow in a secured and peacefull place. Very bad press for our island, react now!
La police est en sous effectif! L'arrêt de la distribution methadone est aussi une des cause de l'augmentation des vols!! Nous refusons de nous habituer à vivre dans la crainte !
I look forward to the police having the appropriate resources to do what they intend to do. We hear reasons about why they "cannot" and not reasons about how they "can".
What's going on? Please make Mauritius a safe place!
Totally agree - the island is losing the battle

I was burgled at the beginning of this year. I would hazard a guess that the first thing the police would have done would be to speak to the workers in and around my place!! Zilch was done!! I have never in 14 years of being in Tamarin seen a patrol car let alone a policeman's presence on the streets!!
