Nuisance callers dial up a 999 logjam

Prank calls,complaints of noisy neighbours at night,sightings of snakes...Policemen have been receiving a whole load of these calls from morning till night.They are grumbling about all this unimportant calls which eventually jammed up the call system and caused the relevant and important calls to lag behind.What if there was someone killing someone at somewhere but the witness could not call the police immediately and by the time the witness managed to call the police,the perpetrator could have already hacked the victim to death.From a prankster's perspective, he/she thinks that it is very funny and enjoyable to do that.ITS WRONG.How can we be so immature to do something like that?I would like to tell all the pranksters that if they continue to do this kind of silly and atrocious act, the police will deal with them severely,be it to get a fine or thrown into the jail.As for those who called the police for inrelevant or unimportant matters like for example, asking what number to call for hiring a cab.I really laughed at it when I read the article.We should help prevent crimes from happening and not messing up with the calling system.People have a part to play in keeping our country safe and pleasant.
