I am very grateful for his thoughtfulness and efficiency. I deal on a daily basis with members of
your police service in both uniform and CID and I have come to expect the
high degree of professionalism I have always experienced with these
officers. The incident this week is
the only occasion on which I have had to call your officers as a ‘victim’ and
it is comforting to know that one receives the same degree of professionalism
in that instance also.
