Police resource shortages in Caserta

Overview

In the province of Caserta, the Interministerial Committee for Public Order and Security (COISP) has requested an extraordinary plan from the Department of Public Security to address critical shortages in staffing and facilities for the State Police.

Reports from the Provincial Secretariat indicate deficiencies across the Questura, various Commissariats, and specialized units, specifically in areas such as Aversa, Casal di Principe, and Castel Volturno. The shortages are attributed to recent retirements and transfers.

Specific units facing challenges include the Highway Police, Railway Police, and the Cyber Security operational section. Additionally, the Technical Logistics Office has reportedly seen a staff reduction of approximately 40% over the last two years, even as its workload increased by 30%.
