Remember to REMAIN CALM and ALWAYS LOOK OUT FOR EACH OTHER
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS and Ways to Keep Yourself Safe!

DO NOT RUN from Police and Council Rangers…
You have the right to be in a public place, at any hour of the day.

If police approach you, always stay calm, be polite and follow their direction.

Don’t forget… you’re allowed to ask for the officers’ name, rank, and police station, which helps to identify the officer when you report the incident.

Please be aware police monitor social networking websites, and that members of the community and its organisations are posing as beat users to actively discourage men from using beats on these sites.
We suggest caution at all times when using these sites.

Please continue to monitor police activity and misconduct, and REPORT IMMEDIATELY.

To ensure your safety, you can report anonymously.

Points to remember:

  • Record the time and date of any incident
  • Make sure you ask for the officers name. It is correct Police Policy and Procedure for officers to clearly identify themselves if they approach you and issue a move-on notice. You need to comply with their direction. If they do not tell you, then this is a serious breach of police policy and MUST be reported immediately. If this is the case, we suggest you record any details about the officer and/or identifying features on the vehicle – such as registration number.

_______________________________________________

We are monitoring police activity at beats across NSW and recommend you report any incident,  especially if you believe that the officer did not follow correct police procedure and was not acting reasonably and professionally, made any homophobic or derogatory comments, and were actively targeting men and putting them at risk of injury.

If you are approached by police, remember to always remain calm and be polite. Do not run as they will chase you and put you at risk of injury. Always ask for the officers name and station and/or make note of the identifying markings on their vehicle.
