{"s" : "dgly","k" : "c10,l10,p20,t10","o" : "","j" : ""} Working closely with its sales representative in Turkey, Mesan Inc., Digital Ally has been awarded a contract from the General Directorate of Police. In Turkey, the police forces are responsible for law enforcement in cities and certain other locations, including airports. Traffic police are responsible for the safety of transportation and also work with the registration of vehicles. The Turkish Police also play a large role in important intelligence and counter-terrorist operations.
The order for DVM-750 systems is expected to be shipped to the General Directorate of Police in the fourth quarter of 2009. This first substantial order from a foreign country for Digital Ally's new DVM-750 system illustrates the acceptance and appeal of the new features incorporated into the product, not only in the United States, but internationally as well.
As announced several weeks ago, Digital Ally, through its sales representative, Mesan, Inc., was awarded a smaller initial contract in July 2009 for DVM-500 Plus In-Car Digital Video Systems from the Turkish Gendarmerie, a branch of the Ministry of Interior that is responsible for the maintenance of public order in areas that fall outside the jurisdiction of police forces. The Gendarmerie, an armed security and law enforcement agency that is military in nature, is also responsible for internal security and general border control. The DVM-500 Plus systems have already been shipped and will be placed into service in the Istanbul district.
"We are very pleased to announce these initial orders from Turkey, which illustrate how our expanding international presence and positive feedback from satisfied customers continue to broaden the Company's customer base in a growing number of countries," commented Stanton E. Ross, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Ally, Inc. "Once the DVM systems have been deployed and their effectiveness is demonstrated in the field, we expect to receive additional orders from both Turkish law enforcement agencies." |
