A week into the ‘Dob in a Dealer’ campaign in Griffith Local Area Command (LAC), police and Crime Stoppers are urging residents to show their support in stamping out the spread of illicit drugs.

The Commonwealth-funded campaign is currently taking place within States and Territories across Australia.

In NSW, the campaign is being held in 21 metropolitan and regional LACs over a six-month period between March and September 2016.

It will run in each LAC for two weeks, during which local residents will be urged to help police shut down drug-manufacturing syndicates and arrest drug suppliers by reporting relevant information to Crime Stoppers.

Since the launch of the Griffith LAC campaign last Monday (22 August 2016), local officers have been out in the community distributing information and educating the public on how they can support the campaign.

Griffith Local Area Commander, Detective Superintendent Michael Rowan, urged the community to get behind ‘Dob in a Dealer’ as the campaign continues this week.

“Officers have been out in the community over the last week to start conversations with the public, let them know what ‘Dob in a Dealer’ is all about, and how they can show their support for this important campaign,” Det Supt Rowan said.

“We know that each time we seize kilos of ‘ice’, we’re preventing thousands of deals from reaching the streets and protecting thousands of people from the impact of this dangerous drug.

“That’s why this campaign is about targeting the manufacturers and suppliers of ‘ice.’ We want to stop the spread of prohibited drugs at the source, before criminals have the chance to distribute them within our neighbourhoods,” Det Supt Rowan said.

“As ‘Dob in a Dealer’ continues, I would urge members of the public to familiarise themselves with the seven signs of a drug house.

“These include strange odours, diverted electricity, chemical containers and waste, blacked-out windows, hoses and pipes in strange places, extremely bright indoor lighting and vehicles arriving at odd hours,” Det Supt Rowan said.

“Not only do these clan labs produce substances that cause severe harm to users, they are highly combustible, pollutant-riddled properties that pose a direct threat to the community around them.

“If any homes in your neighbourhood raise suspicion, please come forward. Your call could be the key to shutting down a drug house in our community.”

Crime Stoppers NSW CEO, Peter Price, said drugs can have devastating consequences for the whole community, and putting a stop to the flow of drugs requires a whole-of-community response.

“Local residents often hold the key to information that can help reduce crime, and we are asking people who live within Griffith LAC to play an active role and report those people that are bringing harmful drugs into the area,” Mr Price said.

“If you have already reported something to Crime Stoppers, we thank you; if you have not and know something, we ask that you let us know immediately.

“By making that one anonymous phone call or online report, you could save not only your community from drugs, but also someone’s life,” Mr Price said.

Please find below a schedule of the local area commands involved in the campaign, including their proposed start dates. This schedule is subject to change.
