I performed a four day recce trip with a member of the technical production team to assess if the project was feasible. After the production of a comprehensive recce report covering all aspects of crowd management and security, I returned to South Sudan with the production team to manage the project.
The event went without incident and the entire production received great feedback concerning high standards of both production as well as security and safety levels.
For further information on the project please view: http://www.vespasiansecurity.co.uk/news/articles/view?slug=vespasian-working-for-peace-in-south-sudan

Forensic spray to help keep stalking victims safe Cumbria Police SmartWater – invisible to the naked eye but which shows up under UV light – is to be given out to people suffering at the hands of stalkers and abusers. Fantastic initiative but…. * Ultraviolet rays are in the wavelength range from 10 to 400 nanometers (nm) * SmartWater flouresces at 365nm - so PLEASE purchase appropriate light sources or the DNA TAGS will be missed. * CopperTree Forensics UV Forensic Investigation Torch is + - 5nm of 365nm and locates EVERY SmartWater DNA Tag. * Just because it says UV - doesn’t mean it’s the correct bandwidth to locate SmartWater (or other similar DNATags) #RaisingStandards #EndViolenceAgainstWoman #DomesticAbuse #AppropriateAdvice
