Rabat – The General Directorate of National Security (DGSN) celebrates its 62nd anniversary today. Recalling six decades of service, the DGSN underscored the importance of openness to citizens.
Maghreb Arab Press (MAP) reported that the security institution has adopted principles based on approachability, communication, and interaction.
DGSN recalled the police headquarters’ first “open house” days held in September that attracted more than 80,000 visitors. During the three-day event, DGSN provided presentations to the public of its various services, security units, and equipment.
According to MAP, approachability is one of the main pillars of DGSN’s strategy, which includes the hotline “19” offered throughout the country to respond to its citizens’ expectations.
DGSN also recalled the establishment of new teams to reinforce security services. The new teams include: Central and Regional Brigades Intelligence, Research and Intervention.
DGSN is bearing its responsibilities to provide security and to challenge all threats to the stability of the country, including terrorism, drug trafficking and transnational organized crimes.
In 2017, DGSN celebrated its 61st anniversary at the Royal Police Institute in Kenitra. The celebration was attended by General Director Abdellatif Hammouchi and Minister of Interior Abdelouafi Laftit.
During the ceremony, the security forces institute announced a set of projects and reforms presented by Hammouchi. The projects included new police headquarters and training schools.
