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."
