The country's police force is set for a major shake-up as the Ministry of Home Affairs and Cultural Affairs has come up with a new roadmap which contains a raft of measures that will see some police officers going for re-training and re-orientation programmes in a bid to improve professionalism in the force.

The ministry said in a bid to curtail corruption, Treasury had been tasked to closely monitor police fines from the public and would retain much of this revenue.

A new training schedule is being drawn up to infuse professionalism throughout the force and improve officers' general interactions with the public.

In addition, only top cops will get personal issue vehicles, with non-critical departments surrendering their cars to crime-fighting and other response units.
