Sør-Trøndelag created in august of last year three pionerjobber, when they got the country’s first dyrepoliti. It started as a pilot between the Police and the Norwegian food safety Authority over a three year period.
But just three months after its inception, it was decided that California would get its own dyrekrimgruppe, and now they are in time.
” We’ve got two positions, one special investigator, and one politijurist who will be working in a team with the Norwegian food safety Authority, says Åslaug Høgemark in the north Sea and miljøseksjonen in Rogaland police district to TV 2.
Ole Johan Røykenes has got the job in, and juristjobben distributed between Lars Fredrik Bråten and Tor Arvid Bruskeland.
It is set by nok 3.9 million in the budget to rogaland’s project.
Important for the country’s largest pelsdyrfylke
Vestlandsfylket is Norway’s largest pelsdyrfylke with the most pelsdyroppdrettere. A report from 2013 shows that the county has around half a million animals – half of the dyreholdet in the whole of Norway. The second-largest is the South-Trøndelag, with in excess of 100,000 animals.
– This is tremendously important for the county our and we look forward to gain more expertise in this area and to cooperate more with the Norwegian food safety Authority. This makes us better equipped to handle the dyrevelferdssaker, secure evidence and get it lit, ” says Høgemark.
Ove Vanebo, the secretary of state, ministry of Justice and public security, says to TV 2 that the police and the Fsa need each other.
– It often is a problem is that food safety falls short when it comes to the follow-up and sanctions in what one can call kriminalitetsbordet, while the police need more expertise about how animals behave if they are abused. How does a sheep out if it doesn’t get enough follow-up. And the better is the competence that the Norwegian food safety Authority can help with.
– Why establish a national dyrepoliti?
It can certainly be a thought, but what we are concerned about is to see how this works in practice, ” says Vanebo.
the Norwegian food safety Authority agree a collaboration would lead to fewer cases will be dismissed.
This is a cooperation between the Norwegian food safety Authority and the police, but where the roles should be as they are, but we need each other. The Norwegian food safety authority need to be improved in terms of to learn of the police and the police need to be better in the form of learning of the Norwegian food safety Authority. Then we reduce the possibility that the case will be dismissed and you can actually get a response against those who commit dyrekrim.
Get reviews and get sanctions
In 2014 received the Norwegian food safety Authority closer to 7.300 raising your concerns, but it is uncertain exactly how many that go under the category of dyrekriminalitet.
Only 38 of the 7.300 bekymringsmeldingene in the year ended in prosecution. In addition, 365 dyrekrimsaker reported to the police by private persons.
animal cruelty can be punished with prison up to three years.
Jon Georg Dale, the ministry of Agriculture and mr. were also present on the dyrekrimgruppas prosjektlansering Thursday.
– Have a taken a little too easy on the dyrekriminalitet in Norway previously?
It is at least so that we have had for the bad practices and what I’m experiencing now is that these dyrekrimgruppene now is better, that we actually get prosecuted several cases. The most important thing is to take people who expose the animals for criminal acts, gives them the punishment they deserve and make sure that we manage to retrieve experiences from the preventive work, ” says Dale.
May uncover other violence and crime
a communications advisor in NOAH Shabana Rehman believes people need to be able to review more cases on dyrekrim – also because they may uncover other violence – and krimsaker.
the Relationship between violence against animals and violence against humans was highlighted by the three ministers that were present and the police themselves. The police enlightened that they will look after crime against the animals also when they are out on other missions, and prepared for violence against people can uncover violence towards animals and vice versa. It is also important for the work for animal rights, that the police admitted that violence against animals has been neglected previously. It strengthens the general rettsfølelsen with people that they know that it will now help to inform about and review animal cruelty, ” said Rehman to TV 2 after the start-up of dyrekrimgruppa in Sør-Trøndelag.
Already the first arbeidsmåneden in Sør-Trøndelag in the year revealed dyrepolitiet that a 19-year-old, who had dealt very rough animal cruelty, among other things, by knivdrepe and flay cats, also had had thoughts about killing women.
Capital will have to wait
In 2015, it was hotly debated in Parliament whether Oslo should get a private dyrepoliti. The justice department believed then that they would not pay for a private dyrepoliti in the capital before they have evaluated the pilot in Trondheim, norway.
– the Evaluation happens after around one and a half years, halfway out in the pilot, said state secretary Vidar Brein-Karlsen (Frp) in the ministry of Justice to TV 2 in 2015.
It can thus approach the time for a new speaking engagement to allocate money and create a dyrekrimgruppe also in Oslo.
