RESCUE kidnapped Tadi Girls with same speed like Canadians-Security Analyst

Executive Director of the Jatikay Centre for Human Security and Peace Building, Adib Saani has challenged the security agencies in the country to use the same seriousness used in freeing the Canadian women to find and rescue the three Takoradi kidnapped girls.

In an interview he granted MyNewsGh.com, Adib is optimistic that if the same approach was used during the search for the missing Takoradi girls, they would have also been found and freed by now.

Adib added that, in criminology, actions and inactions within the first few hours and days after the crime has been committed, determines the success or failure of the investigation. “The longer you delay, the more evidence you lose”, he noted. The Security Analyst examined that the Takoradi kidnapping incident was shrouded in needless delays and feet dragging and to some extent, incompetence.

Adib observed that it is imperative to bring all national security resources to bear to deal with the emerging trend of abductions in the country. This he said would send a clear signal to potential abductors. Using a theory called “rational choice”, Adib said that potential criminals compare risk against reward factors before perpetrating crime. “When the risk factors outweigh the reward factors, they desist. Swift, professional, diligent and robust investigation would invariably make crime a disincentive to would-be criminals as they are likely to be caught”, he noted.

Adib added that, with the right training and logistics, national security operatives can perform better in safeguarding the peace and security of Ghana. He suggested that, there is the need for a biometric database of all foreigners visiting and resident in Ghana.
