Important safety information
Please be vigilant about your safety.
If you notice anything suspicious that affects your personal safety, or feel frightened in your home or asylum accommodation, report it to Police Scotland.
Reporting a crime will NOT affect your asylum claim.
If there is an immediate threat of injury and concern for your safety, dial 999.
If there is no immediate danger, but you wish to inform the police then fill in this form
https://www.scotland.police.uk/secureforms/contact/
This form is monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Should your information require action, it will be passed to the control room for the relevant police division to respond. The police will take seriously all information passed to them.
If you prefer not to fill in the form yourself, then contact us by visiting https://www.paih.org, and we will pass this information on to Police Scotland.
