Se­nior Po­lit­i­cal Re­porter

Home­land Se­cu­ri­ty Min­is­ter Roger Alexan­der says since the School Ori­ent­ed Polic­ing Ini­tia­tive be­gan in Sep­tem­ber 2025, 19 stu­dents were ar­rest­ed in the first term from Sep­tem­ber to De­cem­ber 2025. The 19 were all charged in con­nec­tion with school vi­o­lence.

He gave the sta­tis­tics in the Sen­ate yes­ter­day, re­spond­ing to ques­tions from the Op­po­si­tion bench. Alexan­der al­so said six chil­dren were re­port­ed sep­a­rat­ed, miss­ing or lost dur­ing the Car­ni­val 2026 cel­e­bra­tions, and all six were lo­cat­ed by the TTPS and safe­ly re­unit­ed with par­ents or guardians with­in an hour.
