[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Choi Hyun-joo] On the 3rd, the Gyeongnam Police held the ‘Gyeongnam Provincial Police Agency 3rd Mobile Unit Inauguration Ceremony’ at the 3rd Mobile Unit headquarters, attended by a total of 22 officials including Commissioner Nam Gu-jun.

The newly established 3rd Mobile Unit is the third unit formed following the establishment of the 2nd Mobile Unit in August last year. As a police mobile unit, it is expected to manage various assemblies and demonstrations, as well as support various community safety activities such as district police stations, local police offices, criminal investigations, and traffic.

The establishment of the mobile units is part of the 2017 national agenda plan for ‘gradual reduction of auxiliary police and increase of police personnel,’ and by June 2023, four police mobile units will be established in Gyeongnam.

At the inauguration ceremony, the 3rd Mobile Unit pledged to strictly respond to acts of violence and prioritize human rights and safety, especially at assembly and demonstration sites.

Nam Gu-jun, Commissioner of the Gyeongnam Provincial Police Agency, said, “Although the scale of the inauguration ceremony was reduced due to the spread of COVID-19, much effort was made in preparation including remodeling the headquarters and supplying equipment and materials,” and added, “I ask you to become experts performing security police functions in the field.”
