It was noted, based on the numbers of Police files received by the DPP’s Chambers from Region Five for the year thus far, criminal matters such as break and enter and larceny, sexual offences and domestic violence are prevalent.
On behalf of Madam DPP, Communications Officer Liz Rahaman presented copies of the Sexual Offences Act, the Domestic Violence Act and the Amerindian Act to the village’s Toshao, Derrick John, with a view that during his Village Council meetings, the villagers will be educated.
Earlier in this year, the DPP’s Chambers held meetings with several secondary schools including Bygeval, Mahaicony, Novar, Belladrum, Bush Lot, Fort Wellington, No 8 Secondary and Rosignol.
