The probe found the PSNI "lacks credibility" in the area
A PSNI review has recommended a major shake up to policing in south Armagh.
The area was a hotbed for republican activity during the Troubles - but the report suggests it no longer needs a heavily militarised police presence.
The probe found the PSNI "lacks credibility" in the area - and calls for the closure of Crossmaglen police station.
The review was launched after Chief constable Simon Byrne posted a photo on Twitter in 2019 - alongside heavily armed officers in the area
