CHESHIRE Constabulary has been highlighted for its good practice in a national report looking at how forces across the UK investigate crime.
-
In a new report, Crime investigations: An inspection into how effectively the police investigate crime, His Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services (HMICFRS) found police investigations are hampered by ineffective ways of recording, assessing, allocating and investigating crime.
Cheshire, however, was referenced throughout the report for its innovative practices which are helping meet these challenges to catch criminals and provide a better service to victims.
