Capri, the Prefect's summer security plan: increased checks and new cameras.

Upholding the rule of law and safeguarding public safety are becoming top priorities for the blue island on the eve of the summer tourist boom. Today, the council chamber of the Municipality of Capri hosted a crucial meeting of the Provincial Committee for Public Order and Safety, convened and chaired directly by the Prefect of Naples, Michele di Bari. The institutional meeting was strongly desired to closely analyze and nip in the bud some worrying cases of petty crime and urban disorder that have recently emerged on the island. The mayors of the two municipalities, the Mayor of Capri Paolo Falco and the Mayor of Anacapri Francesco Cerrotta, actively participated in the working group, supported by the highest representatives of the province's civil and military authorities.

During the discussions with local administrators, all the extraordinary control and surveillance services that law enforcement will implement extensively starting in the coming days were finalized and planned in minute detail. On the sidelines of the meeting, speaking directly with reporters present, Prefect Michele di Bari outlined the strategic direction to be followed, reminding all institutional stakeholders of their responsibilities to protect the region's international image: "The goal must be to ensure orderly and civic coexistence on this marvelous island." The head of the government's territorial office then emphasized that his presence on the island was not an isolated event, firmly emphasizing the absolute necessity of extensive institutional cooperation among all relevant forces.

The in-depth analysis of local crime rates has actually revealed a rather reassuring overall statistical picture, highlighting a marked decline in crime in both the Capri and Anacapri areas. Despite the positive figures, the Prefect insisted on maintaining a firm stance and zero tolerance for any form of illegality or urban violence: "We must always stand with the citizens: a single brawl can cause alarm, and it is always necessary to intervene." The Prefect then praised the investigative work carried out thus far, emphasizing that the repressive effort is working effectively, as the perpetrators of crimes committed on the island have been identified fairly quickly, demonstrating that the controls are achieving the desired results. Among the most effective preventive tools was the strategic importance of the city's video surveillance network, which local authorities have committed to further expanding in the short term to monitor the city's nightlife districts. At the end of the summit, the island's mayors expressed deep satisfaction with the commitments made by the Prefecture before accompanying the government authorities back to the ship for their return to Naples.
