The police have recently received signals of unrest in the area.
Therefore, the police will now set up cameras in Brunnsbacken and Bellmansplan.
- We know that cameras have a dampening effect on crime in the public space.
But there is a risk that the problem will move on, he says.
The police know that there are problems with the open drug trade in the area.
- Drugs are the root of many problems in Eskilstuna.
The decision on camera surveillance is valid for a maximum of 90 days, but it may be extended.
The cameras will be equipped with a filter that prevents them from filming in homes, police say.
- The criminals do not take into account people's security, they only take into account themselves, says Bergqvist.
