Albury Local Area Command joins Victoria Police to launch \u2018Dob in a Dealer\u2019 as national campaign continues<\/p>\n
A national campaign aimed at mobilising members of the public in the fight against \u2018ice\u2019 has arrived in Albury Local Area Command (LAC) this week.<\/p>\n
Albury Police will be joined by Victoria Police\u2019s Wodonga Local Area Command tomorrow (Wednesday 13 July 2016), to officially launch the cross-border campaign.<\/p>\n
The \u2018Dob in a Dealer\u2019 campaign has been initiated and funded by the Commonwealth Government, and is currently taking place in States and Territories across Australia.<\/p>\n
In NSW, the campaign is being held in 21 LACs across the state, over a six-month period between March and September 2016.<\/p>\n
It will run in each LAC for two weeks, during which police and Crime Stoppers will conduct community-engagement activities designed to educate the public on the dangers of illicit drugs and how they can show their support for the campaign.<\/p>\n
These activities will also highlight the important role members of the public have in helping police to shut down drug-manufacturing syndicates and arrest drug suppliers.<\/p>\n
During the campaign, residents across Albury LAC will be urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or via the online portal, where they can report drug-dealing activities anonymously.<\/p>\n
While members of the public are encouraged to report any prohibited-drug activity via Crime Stoppers, the focus of the \u2018Dob in a Dealer\u2019 campaign is the production, distribution and use of \u2018ice\u2019 (crystal methylamphetamine).<\/p>\n
