Shillong: Barato police officers hit the classroom Friday to warn students about modern threats. The outreach session at St. Peter Higher Secondary School reached roughly 200 teenagers. It was a direct push to curb crime in West Jaintia Hills.
SI D. Pale led the talk on digital danger. He warned the crowd about identity theft and a specific type of scam known as "digital arrest" frauds. He told the students to lock down their online data and stay alert against predatory cybercriminals. Fraud is spreading fast.
The talk moved quickly to the local drug problem. SI Pale told the students to ignore peer pressure and reject substance abuse for the sake of their futures. He kept the message simple: make smart choices.
SI R. Suiam took over to address child marriage. He explained that early weddings ruin a student's education and long-term potential. He outlined the stiff legal penalties for anyone involved in the practice. The police intend to keep these awareness drives running to tighten community safety.
