While the police forces resolutely attacked crimes and maintain public order and security, the security forces maintained national security and political stability, contributing to the country's socio-economic development and international integration.
Notably, relevant under-ministerial agencies and local police units deployed many drastic campaigns to stamp out crimes. As a result, the rate of criminal offenses decreased by 1.78% while 86.89% of criminal cases were solved, which is higher than that of the same period in 2020. Many serious cases were investigated and solved in a short time and numerous criminal gangs were destroyed over the three past months.
