Surveillance
PRL consultants carried out surveillance on a target under investigation for large scale fraud against his employer.

At the request of his employer the target was subject to a surveillance operation whilst waiting to attend court. On day ten of the operation the target was followed to a financial institution, the surveillance operators liaised with the target's former employer and a decision was made to carry out a citizens arrest of the target when he exited the facility. On arresting the target it was discovered that he had withdrawn a large sum of money and was in possession of travel documents. The target was handed over to the local Police force for questioning; the targets passport was confiscated reducing the risk of him fleeing the country prior to the court case. The target was later successfully prosecuted and received a custodial sentence.

Evidence gathering
A PRL consultant was “hired” by a large brewery as a barman to gather evidence against the public house manager who was suspected of fraud/theft. The consultant worked for two weeks at the establishment gathering evidence. The manager was found not to be guilty; however two members of staff was dismissed on the strength of the evidence gathered against them.

Penetration testing
PRL consultants carried out a series of countrywide facility penetration tests for a major organisation. This consisted of overt and covert facility breach tests, the simulation of leaving an explosive device in a vulnerable area of the facility, assessment of the guard force's procedures and the removal of sensitive items from the facility. The client also requested video evidence of the penetrations.

Close Protection
PRL consultants provided specialist security services to a high profile, high net worth client based in London following a direct and immediate threat being identified against the family.

PRL consultants were tasked at short notice to secure the clients in their London residence which they did providing a close protection and residential security officer. Following this a full threat assessment was carried out of the family, their life style and residences.

Once PRL has completed an assessment a consultation then took place with the clients and PRL directors from which recommendations were provided to the clients regarding the threat and countermeasures that could be provided to nullify the threat and guarantee the family's security. From this the family elected to employ a PRL close protection team for their children and a residence security team on their country estate thus enabling them to continue with their normal lives with minimal disruption whilst having their personal safety guaranteed.
