Serala said: “We encourage residents to avail themselves in working with us so we can make the campaign a great success and save our children from being victims.
“Parents must also make sure that they keep thorough details of their children’s movements and dress code every day and make sure that they know where they go and who they going with and as soon as they suspect any foul play or their children not returning home soon, they must immediately notify the police for help.”
