SECOND PART
OF CLA (Report Writing)
INTRODUCTION
This is the second section of the UNPOL Combined Language
Assessment. It is divided into two
parts. In the first part you will hear one person describing the
mission-related topic you have just read about in the Reading Comprehension –
it will be introduced as the Narrative.
In the second part, you will hear a conversation between two people who are
discussing the same mission-related topic – it will be introduced as the Dialogue.
Please
be reminded that the use of
any computer devices, microphones, books, external notes or assistance from
others is not permitted. Candidates
who fail to observe appropriate conduct during this test will be excluded from
the assessment process. Such actions will be duly noted and communicated in
writing to the authorities of the Member State concerned and to the SAAT
Coordinator in the UN Police Division.
You will be given
a Report Writing Form and another Blank Sheet of paper. Take careful notes on
the Blank Sheet of paper of both the Narrative and the Dialogue. Pay attention
to the important facts and key information. You will hear the recording only one time.
Once the Narrative
and Dialogue are finished, you will be asked to use your notes from both the Reading and the Audio parts
to write your own complete police report.
You will have 30 minutes to complete your police
report. The instructor will indicate when these 30 minutes begin. The
instructor will then announce when there are 5 minutes remaining and when there
is one final minute.
Please
do not forget to write your full name and your individual test serial number
clearly in the spaces provided on the Report Writing Sheet.
Good Luck!
NARRATIVE
Referring to the case of
shooting at 59 Stadium Street on 14 March 2005, Police Patrol Team AB-1 knocked
on the door of the neighboring house. After approximately 10 minutes, an elderly
woman, namely Gordana Bashich, opened the door. She said that initially she did
not want to open the door because she was afraid of the gunfire in the vicinity
of her house. She stated that she lived alone, as her husband had been killed
last year, and her son was in Austria with his family now. The Police officers
introduced themselves, and the woman invited them in. Gordana stated that
approximately at 12.30 hrs, when cooking lunch, she heard a car stop on the
road between her and Branko Ilich’s house. She looked through the window
curtains and saw a black car with three men in it. They were calling for the
neighbor. Gordana saw all three of them clearly when they got out of the car. They
all had a muscular build and were all in black uniforms with black panther
emblems on their sleeves; two were wearing black hats while the third one did
not but instead, his grey hair was visible. One of the men wearing a hat had a distinctly
strong accent while he spoke. Branko replied that he did not want to talk to
them and told them to go away. The
visitors ordered him to come with them to repair their vehicles, otherwise they
would kill him. A few minutes later, she heard two shots coming from Branko’s
house. Those three men returned fire and she heard her neighbor, Branko
screaming. When the gunfire ended, she stated that she saw those men placing
Branko into the trunk of their car. He seemed unconscious, and Gordana also
noticed that he was wounded and that his right shoulder was bleeding. The car
departed and the witness was sure that they had driven towards the airport. Gordana
thought that those perpetrators wanted Branko to repair their vehicles because he
was a good automobile mechanic, which he refused to do. The witness added that for the last three
months unknown armed people in uniforms had been looting the nearby houses and
terrorizing the Serbian neighborhood. She also informed that her neighborhood was
scared and felt insecure because they did not believe the local authorities,
including the police, could protect them. She knew that some families had
already fled the area and gone to Serbia seeking shelter with their relatives. The
AB-1 Team Leader reported the received details to the Duty Officer at the
Police Station and assured Gordana that UN and KFOR would be patrolling the
area more frequently.
DIALOGUE
UN Police Patrol
Team Leader (TL)
|
Good afternoon, Madam. Frankly speaking we did not
expect anybody to open their door to us. We are the UN Police Patrol and came
here because of the shooting we heard right near your house. Would you mind
talking about it?
|
Witness
|
I
was scared; that’s why I did not want to open up. But please, come in. We can
talk.
|
UN Police Patrol TL
|
Thank
you, Madam. Could you tell me something about yourself?
|
Witness
|
I
am Gordana Bashich, I am 60 years old. I was born here and have been living
here all my life.
|
UN Police Patrol TL
|
Do
you live here alone?
|
Witness
|
Yes.
My husband was killed last year, and my son with his wife and 2 kids left 5
years ago. They are living in Austria now.
|
UN Police Patrol TL
|
OK,
what happened today?
|
Witness
|
I
was cooking lunch when I heard a car stop on the road between my house and
Branko’s. It was approximately 12:30 hrs.
|
UN Police Patrol TL
|
Did
you look outside?
|
Witness
|
Of
course I did. I took a look through the window curtains and saw a black car
and three men in it calling out for Branko. I could see them when they got
out of the car.
|
UN Police Patrol TL
|
So
what did they look like?
|
Witness
|
All
three of them had a muscular build and were in black uniforms with a black
panther on their sleeves. Two were wearing black hats while the third one was
not; he had grey hair. One of the men wearing a hat was shouting to Branko in
Serbian but he had a distinctly strong accent.
|
UN Police Patrol TL
|
What
caused the shooting?
|
Witness
|
The
visitors wanted Branko to go with them but he didn't want to talk to them or
join them. He told them to leave. They started threatening him but Branko
seemed to shoot at them twice.
|
UN Police Patrol TL
|
What
do you think those people wanted from your neighbor?
|
Witness
|
Branko
is a good automobile mechanic; I guess they wanted him to repair their
vehicles.
|
UN Police Patrol TL
|
Did
the three men return fire?
|
Witness
|
Yes,
it looked that way. I heard five shots followed by Branko’s screaming. They
stopped shooting, entered the house and in a few minutes they were outside
with Branko who could hardly move. I also saw his right shoulder
bleeding.
|
UN Police Patrol TL
|
Did
the visitors take him with them?
|
Witness
|
Yes,
they opened the trunk of their car and dropped him in there. He seemed
unconscious.
|
UN Police Patrol TL
|
Did
you notice where they drove to?
|
Witness
|
I
am sure they drove toward the airport. It is the only good road here.
|
UN Police Patrol TL
|
Have
you seen those uniformed people before?
|
Witness
|
I
am not sure. But unknown armed people in uniforms have been looting the
nearby villages and terrorizing the Serbian neighborhood for the last three
months. The neighborhood is scared and feels insecure because they don't believe the local authorities,
including police, can protect them. I know that some families have already
fled the area and gone to Serbia seeking shelter with their relatives.
|
UN Police Patrol TL
|
Thank
you very much for your assistance. I will report the security situation in
your area, and I am sure that the presence of international forces will be
increased here through a greater number of patrols.
|
Witness
|
Thank
you.
