‘Yardies’ hands are tied

We were told of the “gang” members driving hundred thousand dollar cars with music and tyres to match. Added to that, the Government has publicly admitted it lost hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue from the illegal mining. Yet, after a couple of truckers were arrested and charged $100, the entire matter has been dropped as though it never existed. What has happened to the investigations that were being undertaken by the Ministry of National Security? And what has happened to the hundreds of millions of dollars?

Will the Yardies’ terms of reference allow them to investigate the rape of our treasury or just to work with the Special Anti-Crime Unit, SAUTT? It is convenient that they are restricted to anti-crime measures judging from the unit they are attached to, under the leadership of Brigadier Antoine Joseph and Minister Martin Joseph, and not under the far-reaching authority of the CoP.

Did someone say that the Opposition was hoodwinked again into supporting the new government police authority.
