Mysuru: The new team Mysuru District Police 'Specila 21', is now cracking down on offences across the district under direct supervision of Superintendent of Police Ravi D. Channannavar.

D-SWAT – District Special Weapons and Tactics, a trained commando force – has begun working here since February 7. The 21-member force, with an inspector and sub-inspector in the team, has been specially trained in counterterrorism, anti-sabotage, VVIP security, rescue operations and much more.

The members, who were handpicked from the police force, have been trained at the Centre for Counter-Terrorism at Kudlu in Bengaluru.

Mr. Channannavar told that only personnel who were interested had been picked up for the force and all of them underwent a rigorous training.

Special 21 will move across the district from one taluk to another in mufti and attend to such complaints. In two days, the team arrested nine people in a liquor-related case and 16 people in various other cases.
