SVPD officers help clean up Rehab Centre |30 July 2013

The SVPD is an anti-piracy force whose main objectives are to escort and defend fishermen, boat, yachts and islands.

Two islands that are protected by SVPD are Bird and Denis.

The SVPD is based at the ex-coastguard base on Bois de Rose Avenue.
The SVPD responded to a request made by the Rehab Centre asking for help to clean the centre’s premises.

The group was led by second in command Selwyn Uzice, who said that this is the second request that they have responded to.
He said that they try to help whenever they get such requests depending on whether they have officers available.
