Peel Regional Police Discuss South Asian Youth Violence At Community Meeting In Brampton

Darpan News Desk , 25 Jun, 2018 10:33 AM

    There has been growing concern from the community as social media videos have gone viral, depicting people engaging in violent acts in the middle of the streets and parking lots in Brampton.

     

    In a meeting today, the Superintendent of 22 Division spoke to the community and addressed their concerns.

     

    He met with community partners and media representatives who attended the Brampton Youth Violence Town Hall and Panel Discussion, hosted by Ontario Gurdwara Committee and United Sikhs, regarding the recent incidents of violence involving Brampton youth.

     

    “This forum here is outstanding, and I’m grateful that we have the opportunity to be a part of it” said Superintendent Stephen Blom.

     
     

    Superintendent Blom reassured attendees that as soon as the incidents were reported and the videos were seen, Peel Regional Police had employed measures to deal with the lawless public behaviour.

     

    This is a priority for Peel Regional Police. We have increased patrols using officers from our Neighbourhood Policing Unit, Uniform Patrol and our Community Mobilization Teams. The officers from these units have placed their focus on the locations that have been identified and will continue to do so. Investigators in our Criminal Investigation Bureau are working diligently to identify those involved.

     

    Superintendent Blom went on to say, “We need to teach our young people that these are not the ways to resolve conflicts, and we need to do that together. I’m well aware that policing is a huge part of the solution but it’s not all of it. We need your help.”

     
     
     

    ਕੌਈ ਦਿਨ ਖਾਲੀ ਨਾ ਚੱਲਿਆ ਜਾਵੇ ਕੱਲ ਰਾਤ ਸ਼ੇਰੀਡਨ ਕਾਲਜ ਦੇ ਪਿੱਛੇ ਫਿਰ ਹੋਈ ਹਿੰਸਕ ਝੜਪ ।। Members Parliament,MPPs, Councillors ਤੇ ਹੋਰ ਲੀਡਰਸ਼ਿਪ ਨੂੰ ਬੇਨਤੀ ਹੈ ਬਰੈਂਪਟਨ ਸੁਰੱਖਿਅਤ ਨਹੀ ਹੈ ਸੜਕਾ ਤੇ ਬਦਮਾਸ਼ਾ ਦਾ ਦਬਦਬਾ ਹੈ ਤੂਸੀ ਸਿਰਫ ਫੋਟੋ ਖਿਚਵਾਉਣ ਦਾ ਹੀ ਕੰਮ ਕਰ ਰਹੇ ਹੋ । ਲੋਕਾ ਦੇ ਸਬਰ ਦਾ ਇਮਤਿਹਾਨ ਨਾ ਲਵੋ । ਸਖ਼ਤ ਐਕਸ਼ਨ ਦੀ ਲੋੜ ਹੈ ਨਹੀ ਤੇ ਤੁਹਾਡਾ ਰਾਜਨੀਤਕ ਸਫਰ ਲੋਕ ਬੰਦ ਕਰ ਦੇਣਗੇ ।। ਮਾਫੀ ਚਾਹੁੰਦਾ ਅੱਜ ਸਖਤ ਲਫਜ ਬੋਲਣੇ ਪਏ ।। ਕੁਲਤਰਨ ਸਿੰਘ

    Chief Jennifer Evans urges the community to report any violent activity to police, “I share the concerns of the community and want to assure the public that we are working diligently to identify those responsible for these violent acts. We are committed to keeping our community safe, but we cannot do it alone. We need the community to help us by calling police with any information that might help us find those responsible”.

     

    If you know anything or receive any further information on this type of lawless behaviour, we encourage you to report it directly to 22 Division Criminal Investigators Bureau at 905-453-2121 ext. 2233. Information may also be left anonymously by calling Peel Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or by visiting www.peelcrimestoppers.ca.
