Police presence on social media

THE police are constantly upgrading the services provided through social networking sites in a bid to better serve the public, a spokesman said on Saturday.
Andreas Angelides said an effort was being made to have a constant flow of information that is of interest to the public through Facebook, Twitter and Youtube.
The service has also created a smart phone app that is currently being used by 5,300 people in 31 countries.
Its presence on social networking sites also gave people a chance to provide feedback and information concerning offences.

 

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
