I AM writing to comment on R Jones statement (You Say, June 7) that the police should stop running the police force as a profit-making business.

This view is somewhat narrow and arrogant, for if this person did any in-depth research, he would find that the police force is actually under-funded.

This, however, does not stop police officers from doing their best at fighting crime and finding justice in this crime-ridden society of the 21st Century.

There is no money incentive or profit- making business involved in the running of the police force.
