Taking Action Against Local Crime

Regent’s Place Takes Action Against Local Crime

The police and security industry continue to encourage the deployment of SelectaDNA Tagging Sprays. CIS Security Limited Security at Regent’s Place has now been trained in their use, and they are carried as part of the standard officer equipment.

Head of Security John Reynolds MSyI said, “These kits can be used by our security team to mark potential offenders to deter and prevent attacks and criminal behaviour. Our robust security regime already ensures that our campus has low crime levels. However, the surrounding areas, particularly arterial roads, have seen a number of cycle-enabled mobile phone thefts”.

The message is clear to criminals – do not commit offences on or near Regent’s Place. The SelectaDNA Tagging & Defence Sprays are compact offender marking sprays. The solution is easily identifiable under UV light and irrefutably links criminals with crimes using unique synthetic DNA. The spray is not harmful, is water-based, and has unique DNA coding.

We want to deter offending and help catch those who commit serious crimes. The tagging sprays will enhance our service to our customers, occupiers, residents, and visitors. We work closely with the Metropolitan Police and our security teams across Regent’s Place, and this should reassure occupants, residents, and visitors that we continue to do all we reasonably can to keep people safe.
