Malta Police officers posted at the Rapid Intervention Unit (RIU) and Mater Dei Hospital have recently successfully completed training in relation to the use of BolaWrap® – a remote restraint device that has proven to be a valuable and effective tool in assisting law enforcement agencies across the globe to safely detain individuals.
BolaWrap is not a weapon and it is designed not to cause pain when stopping a threat. Instead, it is perceived as 𝙧𝙚𝙢𝙤𝙩𝙚 𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙘𝙪𝙛𝙛𝙨 since this patented device discharges a Kevlar cord to restrain or entangle non-compliant individuals from a distance.
