Southern Cross Protection engaged in a covert mission to catch graffiti vandals that had been repeatedly targeting Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull’s office in Edgecliff, NSW.

At 03:30 am, through the focus and dedication of our officer Gaurav Parmar and others on the project, the offender was caught and detained in the act.

Special thanks to Rose Bay Police for their prompt response, arriving at the scene 3 minutes from the call being made.

“Graffiti or ‘tagging’ is a form of vandalism. Most people see graffiti as an eyesore and its presence increases people’s fears that other crime is common in the area. Defacing property with graffiti is anti-social behaviour and punishable by law.” – Queensland Government
