  • Security Council Distr
    UNITED NATIONS Security Council Distr. GENERAL S/1997/237 19 March 1997 ORIGINAL: ENGLISH TWENTY-SECOND PROGRESS REPORT OF THE SECRETARY-GENERAL ON THE UNITED NATIONS OBSERVER MISSION I. INTRODUCTION 1. The present report is submitted pursuant to Security Council resolution 1083 (1996) of 27 November 1996, by which the Council extended the mandate of the United Nations Observer Mission in Liberia (UNOMIL) until 31 March 1997. The report provides an update on developments in Liberia since my previous report dated 29 January 1997 (S/1997/90), and contains recommendations on the role to be played by UNOMIL in the forthcoming Liberian elections. II. POLITICAL ASPECTS 2. During the period under review, further progress has been made towards the implementation of the Abuja Agreement. There have been significant achievements in the disarmament of fighters which, under the revised schedule of implementation of the Abuja Agreement, was to be completed by 31 January 1997. The Monitoring Group of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOMOG) has received some of the additional troops pledged to it, and has continued to extend its presence into the interior of the country, thus facilitating greater access by humanitarian agencies. With the improvement in the security situation, the civilian population is gradually beginning to gain the confidence to move freely in some hitherto unsafe areas of the country. The level of disarmament thus far achieved has also made it possible to begin preparing for the holding of elections. The United Nations, in consultation with the Liberian National Transitional Government, the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and other partners, has already started to prepare for its role in the electoral process.

Jessup Office of Public Safety NovemberlDecember 1966 PREFACE This report is intended to serve as a guide in forcasting the man­ power requirements associated with the continued development of the National Police Force of Liberia. The author wishes to acknowledge the predominant role played by the Honorable James A. A. Pierre, Attorney General of Liberia, in the development of the report. His continued personal interest, advice and support was invaluable to the successful execution of the project. Ref­ erence must also be made to the constructive advice and contributions made by Mr. E. Harding Smythe, Director, National Police Force and his staff. Similarly consequential were the contributions of Mr. Robert H. Nooter, Director, USAID to Liberia and members of the United States Mission to Liberia. Other very valuable individual contributions were made by Mr. Albert I. Sandsmark, Chief Public Safety Advisor, and his staff in the office of Public Safety. Grateful aclmowledgment is also extended to Colonel Robert A.

  • OSAC Crime & Safety Report
    Liberia 2020 OSAC Crime & Safety Report This is an annual report produced in conjunction with the Regional Security Office at the U.S. Embassy in Monrovia. OSAC encourages travelers to use this report to gain baseline knowledge of security conditions in Liberia. For more in-depth information, review OSAC’s Liberia country page for original OSAC reporting, consular messages, and contact information, some of which may be available only to private-sector representatives with an OSAC password. Travel Advisory The current U.S. Department of State Travel Advisory at the date of this report’s publication assesses Liberia at Level 1, indicating travelers should exercise normal precautions. Exercise increased caution in urban areas and public beaches due to crime. Review OSAC’s report, Understanding the Consular Travel Advisory System. Overall Crime and Safety Situation The U.S. Department of State has assessed Monrovia as being a CRITICAL-threat location for crime directed at or affecting official U.S. government interests. Crime remained at a critical level throughout the country in 2019, owing to growing public discontent with Liberia’s faltering economy. Reports of home and residential compound invasions increased, as did violent robberies in populated areas. In 2019, there was an increase in reporting of non-violent crimes. Many of these crimes are “snatch-and- grabs” of electronics, purses, bags, and backpacks; vehicular vandalism; and vehicle break-ins categorized as theft. These crimes of opportunity usually occur in densely populated areas throughout the country. Most snatch-and-grabs involve young male assailants between the ages of 13 and 25. Criminals often carry knives or homemade handguns, and occasionally work in small groups to target unsuspecting victims.
