The MPS targets suspected perpetrators of domestic violence and hate crime in dawn raids across the Capital

Four suspected perpetrators of domestic violence and hate crime have so far been arrested by Haringey officers as part of a series of raids carried out across the capital this morning, Wednesday 7 December, under Operation Athena.

Those arrested so far by Haringey  officers include a woman arrested in Enfield on suspicion of taking a conveyance from a family member in N17,  a man arrested on suspicion of common assault when he handed himself in at Hornsey police station, a man arrested in Great Amwell Lane N8 on suspicion of common assault and a man arrested in Boyton Road N8 on suspicion of actual bodily harm. Enquiries continue concerning these allegations and officers continue to carry out warrants across the borough.

So far across London a total of 64 arrests have been made, with activity ongoing. Operation Athena sees officers executing warrants at addresses across London's 32 boroughs, proactively targeting dangerous and prolific offenders to bring those suspected of committing domestic violence and a range of hate crimes to justice.

The operation, run twice a year since 2000, aims to transfer the fear on to the offender and encourage more victims to come forward. Arrests this morning range from violence and common assault to breach of court orders.

The main thrust of today's action under Operation Athena is to combat violence against women, however it also encompasses hate and faith crime. This includes racist, homophobic, disability motivated crime and crimes against the vulnerable or elderly by members or their own family or carers.  

Today's raids coincide with the MPS Domestic Violence [DV] publicity campaign reminding Londoners that 'You make the Call, We'll make it stop. Call 999'.

The campaign, which runs until 30 December, once more draws the public's attention to the issue of DV and is a powerful call to action which aims to elevate the emergency status of DV through press and radio ads and online interactive film. 

In an innovative press ad which features in today’s Evening Standard, readers are challenged by a message which shows through wallpaper from the next page, which is a visual reflection of how the sounds of domestic abuse are experienced and overheard through next door walls.

In addition, the film, viewed from the setting of a 'neighbour’s lounge', uses emotive sound effects of a domestic violence incident taking place through the wall between a couple in the next door flat - whilst presenting viewers with a choice whether to intervene and call emergency services by hitting 999 on their keyboards.

Overall, the campaign seeks to demonstrate that bystanders can stop DV by dramatising the immediate effect of a 999 call, or if they choose not to take action, remind them of the potentially devastating consequences. Nearly one in five murders in London are accounted for by DV.

Both Operation Athena and the DV advertising campaign link in with the 16 days of international activity under International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women [held on Nov 25] to combat all forms of violence against women.

Assistant Commissioner Simon Byrne said: "These are vile crimes that target people when they are most vulnerable. Our approach is very simple - if you commit a crime and we have the evidence then we will put you before the courts.

“The campaign is about intervening if you see or hear domestic abuse by dialing 999. People should not be suffering in silence.

Deputy Mayor for Policing, Kit Malthouse said: "There is nothing more intolerable than the hideous violence carried out behind closed doors by so called 'loved ones'.

“We've prioritised combating all violence against women, and as Operation Athena today highlights, we will continue to make London a hostile environment for perpetrators of these heinous crimes. 

“Today's Operation sends a clear message to all offenders - you will be caught, you will be arrested, and you will be brought to justice. 

“Nobody should have to endure the trauma of domestic, racist or hate abuse and I urge victims to come forward and report incidents.  

“I would also encourage friends, family and neighbours to speak to police on behalf of victims if needed so we can investigate and stop these criminals in their tracks." 

Haringey Borough Commander Detective Chief Superintendent Sandra Looby said: "We are committed to intervening in violence of any form at the earliest opportunity, to protect and support victims and to bring the perpetrators to justice.

"We know that domestic violence and all types of hate crime are under-reported, and we urge people, including friends and family of those involved, to tell us what is happening so we can help them and hold the perpetrators to account for their actions.

"We have a dedicated team of experienced officers who treat victims sensitively and with respect and work closely with partner agencies to ensure victims are provided with wraparound support.

"Today's operation provides a glimpse of the ongoing work we are carrying out to tackle hate crime and protect the community in Haringey."

Last financial year [April 2010 to March 2011] there were 48,419 domestic violence offences, 8,796 racist and religious hate crime offences and 1,335 homophobic offences across London.

Last financial year [April 2010 to March 2011] in Haringey, police received reports of 1516 domestic violence offences, 119 racist and religious hate crime offences and 20 homophobic offences.

The MPS has more than 500 specialist investigators working across the 32 community safety units - one in each borough dedicated to domestic violence and hate crime- to respond to every report of abuse, while a central team of officers with specific expertise in domestic abuse matters provide advice and support to them and look at new initiatives which are then fed into policy and practice.

Effective partnerships are key to providing appropriate support and advice to victims of domestic abuse and the MPS is proud to work alongside many excellent agencies both statutory and voluntary to keeping victims and their children safe and to hold abusers accountable for their actions.

Local borough officers are involved in initiatives to encourage all our communities, including those who traditionally have been harder to reach, to report crime either to the police or through third party or non-police reporting sites.

Total Policing is the Met's commitment to be on the streets and in your communities to catch offenders, prevent crime and support victims. We are here for London, working with you to make our capital safer.

Hi all
Can anyone recommend a carpet cleaning company?
thanks in advance
Julian

I think the key question is would a CPZ actually eliminate any of the cars and
vans parked in our neighbourhood, or would most or all of the owners be entitled
to permits?  I still find it hard to believe people drive to our streets and
park unless they more or less have to.  The council would like us to believe
they are going to solve this problem, but I think what we will find at the end
of the exercise is the whole of the borough covered in CPZs and the same number
of vehicles parked as before, just that we will all be poorer.

Hi Julian

You  are right , that is the key question.

People do definitely come and park here  for the train station  and it has got much worse in the last month, there were as many arrivals as departures this morning and this was not the pattern before the extension  when during the day it was always possible to park.

I have spoken to a few people who live in areas that now have CPZ and they mainly say it does improve the parking although almost all agree that it is particularly annoying  to be forced into this , as there were never really any parking issues in the area before the CPZ areas were established. It seems ridiculous .

I have emailed the council to ask how we can re-engage discussions , so assuming I get a reply I will circulate it.

Hi, I didn't realise anyone else was trying to get this sorted.  I've just had
an email from Vincent Valero saying that they do not have plans to have any more
consultation about the parking.  I work in Housing and we are entitled to
request consultation.  I feel that the Council is skirting around this issue. 
The other day I parked by Rokesly school as there was nowhere in Rathcoole

December has been terrible ( it got a bit better over the Christmas holidays ),
but last night we had to park in Harvey ( we live at the other side of
Rathcoole) and this morning I went out for a few hours and couldn’t get
parked anywhere near the house at 1130 in the morning. I guess this is not the
end of the world , but it is not ideal when you are carrying kids and shopping
etc. Ă‚ It seems to be CPZ by stealth.

Dear sir/madam,

 

Invite to community focus group meeting to discuss parking in Muswell Hill/Hornsey areas  

 

I am contacting you as you have previously expressed interest in attending a resident focus group meeting to discuss parking in your area. You may have done this by: responding to an information letter relating to parking in July or November of last year, making contact via your ward councillors or contacting us directly.

 

A community focus group meeting to take place has been arranged as follows:

 

Date and time:          Monday 28 May 7-9pm

Location:                 St Mary’s Infants hall, Church Lane, N8 7BU        

 

The purpose of this focus group meeting is to discuss any parking pressures the community are experiencing and potential ways to address residents’ parking concerns.

 

The meeting will be attended by officers within Traffic Management, ward councillors, residents from roads within the Muswell Hill/Hornsey areas and the Cabinet Member for Neighbourhoods, Councillor Canver.  Agendas will be sent out closer to the meeting time. Please note this meeting is invite only to ensure it is manageable and productive for all those who attend.   

 

I would be grateful if you confirm if you can attend as soon as possible.  

 

Please contact me should you require any more information on this matter.    

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Vincent Valerio

Hi. I've also been invited and am attending so perhaps we should get as many people to request to attend to get our collective voices heard?

I was at the meeting and was probably in the other group. I do take the view
that I would rather not have CPZ but see it as a necessary evil as it was clear
that displacement has been high and will continue to be so

Dear Neighbours,
My cat Rico showed up for breakfast today (Sunday 17)  with what I think is a
broken back paw. He didn't eat and escaped from the garden. I have not seen him
or been able to lure him back. He needs urgent veterinary attention.
I would be very grateful if you would check your gardens in case he is hiding or
lying somewhere. His is a white and tabby fluffy cat with a long very fluffy
tail.
07939 518126. My husband's also put notices through some front doors so
apologies of you are bombarded.
Many thanks,
Sarah

Dear Neighbours,

The cat has returned overnight and is under veterinary care. Many thanks to
those of you who sent kind messages. Lisa, I do sympathise with your plight and
if it is any reassurance (though I don't live near you) some of us do keep our
cats within firm boundaries, use litter trays and try to minimise harm to
wildlife with collar bells etc. Our garden's a bit of a bird hang-out as a
result. Given that cats seem to have taken a particular shine to your garden,
you might wish to speak with a vet or specialist (I suspect you have done this)
to see whether there are any powerful sonic or scent repellents. The water
pistol approach is effective - especially if it's a power blaster! Even if you
can't get them each time they do remember.

Best wishes,

Sarah (Rathcoole Gardens)
