Task Forces Created to Deal with Foreigners' Crimes

The Supreme Public Prosecutors Office announced Tuesday it had organized task forces nationwide to exclusively investigate crime related to foreigners during the World Cup period. An exclusive hot line (1588-9010) has been placed at each task force headquarters for people to be connected automatically with relevant district offices through 130 interpreters. The task forces will deal with alleged crimes committed by soccer players, coaches and team officials, reporters and visitors.
