Telone Now Rewarding Good Money For Reporting Cable Theft And Vandalism, It Has Already Paid $20000 This Year Alone

Telone’s struggle to contain the damage and theft of its communications cables has now forced it to introduce financial rewards as a way of encouraging people to report the criminals (who steal and damage the cables). In its Notice, the state-owned telecoms operator said that it’s offering a financial reward of up to $2000 to anyone who informs it about people who damaged or stole its property.

What surprised me is Telone’s claim that it has already paid $20 000 thus far this year, when this programme (of rewarding people for reporting vandalism and theft criminals) was not publicly known. So, it stands to reason that Telone was quietly rewarding people who reported criminals that vandalized and stole its property. And now it thought it wise to publicize the programme.
