Anti-terrorist hotline
If you’re concerned about suspicious behaviour in your
neighbourhood or have information you believe may help the police,
please call the Anti-Terrorist Hotline.
The number is 0800 789321.
You do not have to give your name and all information received
via the hotline is confidential.
Information that might seem insignificant on its own could prove
vital in a wider investigation.
Suspicious behaviour could include people coming and going at
strange times of day or night, someone taking an interest in
security such as CCTV cameras without good reason, using false
documents or simply behaving differently to how you’ve known them
to behave in the past.
If you suspect it, report it.
Reporting terrorist material on the web
Residents in Essex are urged to make use of a new unit set up by
the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) to
report terrorist material on the web.
A website www.direct.gov.uk/reportingonlineterrorism
was launched in March 2011 to give residents the chance to report
it anonymously.
