Dear Editor
THERE was a meeting held in the Amerindian community of St Deny, Tapakuma, Region Two, to elect a chairman and committee of the newly formed Community Policing Group. This second round of elections, sir, was nothing more than a fraud. Let me expound a little.
Firstly, based on investigation, it was discovered that the results of the first set of elections were purportedly overturned for the reason that there was no representative present from the police high command, even though two constables attended.

Secondly, the first election was overtly derailed through the intervention of a single individual to insert a chairperson to her liking. Just a single individual’s request, (a Regional Councillor) was granted at the expense of justice and fair play. Also, there was no police presence, quite unlike the first meeting, yet the new election results were upheld. How indecent, lawless and wicked can people become?

Sir, it is hoped that the police at the command centre have observed that the individual who is now chairman of the newly formed policing group at this location is under the community’s magnifying lens for alleged involvement in illicit activities. Could the Minister of Public Security, Khemraj Ramjattan, intervene, or at the least, orde a fresh election?
