Riga police ask public to help identify people shown in images and video
The Riga East Division of the State Police has published images and video of people whose identities it is trying to establish. Police urge anyone who recognises them or knows where they are to come forward.
Officers of the Riga East Division of the Riga Region Department of the State Police in Latvia are asking the public to help establish the identity of several people. Images and video showing these individuals have been made public, and police hope that someone who sees them will be able to provide useful information.
What police are asking
The State Police urge people to look carefully at the published images and video and to respond if they may recognise any of the people shown. Police also want to hear from anyone who may not know the person but knows where he or she can be found. The appeal is addressed to everyone, and even partial information may be of help.
The announcement does not say why police want to establish the identities of these people or which case or incident the request is linked to.
How to pass on information
People can inform police by calling 112. Another option is to write to the email address dmitrijs.pozdnakovs@riga.vp.gov.lv.
Public appeals of this kind are a way for police to involve the community in identifying people. Any tip could help officers establish more quickly what is going on.
