National Security Minister, Peter Bunting, says professional men and women of the Jamaica Constabulary Force, remain committed to the fight against crime despite being bruised by damaging incidents such as the brutal beating death of Mario Deane.
Minister Bunting says decent members of the constabulary, are determined to follow through on positive trends, despite being affected by recent incidents which have hurt the force.
The Security Minister spoke to our news center today shortly after addressing a Unite for Change Social Intervention Workshop at the Manning’s High School in Westmoreland.
Meanwhile, the Security Minister commented on a report from the Police High Command in the Weekly Force Orders, that show that homicides recorded in Jamaica in July, fell to a ten-year low.
Seventy murders were recorded for the month.
Minister Bunting says disclosure that fifty fewer people were murdered in July 2014, when compared to the same month last year, should be treated with cautious optimism.
