Rowley:No safe harbours for criminals in Caribbean

THE Prime Minister has vowed that criminals will not find any safe haven in the Caribbean to carry out their nefarious and illegal activities.
Dr Rowley, who has responsibility for national security in Caricom's quasi-cabinet, made this promise when he addressed the opening of Caricom's second regional symposium on violence as a public health issue in Georgetown, Guyana on November 22.

He reminded participants of the first symposium, held last April in Port of Spain.
Rowley repeated that crime and violence remain a major threat to the region's stability and the safety of its people.

"We resolved to take decisive action to turn the tide of violence that was reaching our shores."

Rowley announces rollout of Caribbean gangs database

Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley has announced the imminent rollout of a Caribbean-wide gangs database and the implementation of the Caricom Arrest Warrant Bill, which aims to ensure no safe harbours for criminals anywhere in the region.

Speaking at Caricom’s second regional symposium titled- Violence as a Public Health Issue in Georgetown, Guyana, yesterday, Rowley emphasised the importance of these initiatives in strengthening regional security and law enforcement collaboration.

“The Caribbean Gang Database will be a key resource for law enforcement,” Rowley said, adding, “Information is strength. By identifying and sharing intelligence on known bad actors, law enforcement across the region can work more effectively.”
He highlighted the significance of the Caricom Arrest Warrant Bill, which aims to standardise extradition processes across member states.

“Criminals must understand that in every Caricom territory, the law applies equally to them as it relates to warrants in anticipation of prosecution. There are no safe harbours in any Caribbean territory. We want this legislated,” Rowley stated.

This should take a decade to be implemented with these clowns from UWI in charge.
