Why police detained VeryDarkMan
Recall that the police strongly denounced VeryDarkMan's (VDM) unauthorized use of their uniform in his recent video. In the clip, VDM donned a police uniform and humorously referred to himself as "Chief Superintendent of Police of the Online Division."
According to the force, an investigation has been launched to uncover the source of the attire and address the improper usage. This move aims to maintain the integrity and dignity of the police force. A police statement emphasized that wearing the uniform without authorization is a serious offence and undermines the professionalism of law enforcement.
VeryDarkMan's actions have sparked concern, with some questioning the ease of accessing police attire. The investigation seeks to address potential security breaches. The police have urged the public to report any similar incidents, stressing the importance of respecting the symbols of authority and maintaining public trust in law enforcement institutions.
