Speaking to Herald, an officer on condition of anonymity said, “Being a tourist destination, Goa attracts thousands of visitors all year-round. Sadly, the quality of these has gone down tremendously, with some even committing crimes from petty ones to major ones. Along with tourists, Goa has a massive migrant population as well. Coastal areas, in particular, have seen a rise in crime thanks to a lot of these migrants making the region their home.”
