Community Reassurance Message - Afghanistan

Picture
POLICE SCOTLAND
MESSAGE TO AFGHAN COMMUNITY IN SCOTLAND

Message from Assistant Chief Constable Gary Ritchie – 10 September 2021
In recent weeks and months the situation in Afghanistan has led to a humanitarian crisis, resulting in a number of Afghani citizens being relocated to Scotland and other United Kingdom nations.

Police Scotland warmly welcomes all those who have recently arrived from Afghanistan. We want you to feel safe and supported whilst you begin to rebuild you and your family’s lives here in Scotland.
We do not want anyone to feel marginalised or be isolated in their new homes or communities, as there is already far reaching support amongst Scottish communities for Afghani nationals to integrate and become part of the already rich diverse population of Scotland.

Should there be any concerns affecting Afghan communities both settled and those newly arrived, I would encourage you to contact the police or local partner agencies. This will allow police and partners to work together to ensure as smooth a transition as possible for those newly arrived from Afghanistan. This will also help to address any emerging issues or tensions or fears.

Anyone can contact Police Scotland by:
  • dialling 101 or 999 in an emergency
  • via SMS 999 – you must register for this service before using it
  • using Text Relay using the BT Relay UK app or textphone
  • online at the Police Scotland website.
  • via a community support organisation or local authority contact who will then help you to report it to the Police.
Police Scotland have translated ‘A Guide to Scots Law’ into Pashto, Dari and Farsi which is also now available.
