Since you are in receipt of proof let’s all read it Mr. Corbin

May 15, 2008 Letters

Dear Editor,
Opposition Leader Mr. Robert Corbin says he is in receipt of reliable information that the two senior Police officers were transferred because they refused to shoot demonstrators.
Since you have proof and evidence that the PPP/C has ordered the shooting to create chaos then let the media print it for all the world to see and read.
If Government is involved, then thrash it out and take legal action against the government and not threaten the citizens of the country.
Why should there be anarchy, grave consequences, serious repercussion for peace and stability of this nation as you say?
Tell the nation why all the above mentioned will happen if the PPP/C gave orders to shoot demonstrators?
Sure, you, I and many will agree that if police and or security officers refuse to protect citizens of any country then they ought to be removed.
Mr. Corbin you must be reminded that police and security are being paid by taxpayers for their sole protection.
Mr. Corbin you must be reminded that you too are being paid by taxpayers of this country.
You too have the right to help in the protection of this country’s citizens.
Mr. Corbin you ought to be reminded that Government has the right to remove and sometimes jail police officers for refusing to protect its citizens.
Democratically Elected Government is mandated to first and foremost protect its citizens.
Mr. Corbin, your past protest marches were characterized by looting, burning, beatings and rape of innocent citizens.
Then you say “criminal elements infiltrate your peaceful protest marchers” where you have no control of those.
T. King
