Aid CBTT to expose crimnal elements in society

THE EDITOR: The crime rate in Trinidad and Tobago is increasing rapidly because too many of our citizens are turning a blind eye to the many social ills confronting the society. In light of this increase in crime, the group Citizens for a Better Trinidad and Tobago (CBTT) is calling on social, community and religious workers to make their voices heard. If we remain quiet on issues pertaining to murder, rape, incest, child abuse, drugs, corruption and other criminal activities, the crime rate will escalate even further. Our country will pay a dear price if we continue to allow people to get away with serious criminal acts. We make a sterling plea to the relevant authorities to work closely with CBTT in purging the country of criminals. We need to act quickly because criminals and other wrongdoers are presently having a field day, since they know that it’s more than likely they will get away with their evil acts.

CBTT has not been afraid to speak out against human suffering as well as the evil work of people, even though a few individuals have threatened to keep the group quiet. This is unlikely to happen because there are great people out there who recognise that CBTT is the voice of many of our citizens. We must not harbour criminals, however young they may be, because if we do, we are in effect encouraging and condoning criminal activities in society. Murderers, drug lords, crooked cops, corrupt citizens as well as perpetrators of incest, child abuse and rape must be exposed if we want a better Trinidad and Tobago.
