DPP office to host public outreach programme

in an effort to better serve the needs of the public, the office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Shalimar Ali-Hack will on Friday hold a public outreach programme in Region Two (Pomeroon- Supenaam).

The objective of this programme, according to the office’s Communications Officer Liz Rahaman, is to meet with members of the public who have concerns and complaints about criminal matters and need assistance.

The outreach programme forms part of the DPP chambers’ constitutional mandate “to be of service to people” and owing to the high number of complaints received from residents in Region Two, the office considered it imperative that the Region be helped “with the aim of ensuring that justice is served in an efficient and timely manner”.

Rahaman is, however, requesting from the Regional Chairman’s Office, its cooperation in the facilitation of the use of the regional boardroom, to meet with the public on the above specified date between 09:00h and 14:30h, and has expressed commendations on behalf of the DPP to the Regional Chairman for his anticipated cooperation.
