Albouystown state of affairs
Dear Editor,
I want to support the letter on Monday 8th February, by Jason Abdulla titled: “A few police ranks in Albouystown…” though this situation is true and reprehensible it is as a consequence of the lack of governance and absence of any moral character in the very PPP Government that Mr. Abdulla and his family have sold themselves to as functional lackeys.
The police contend that the ganja sellers of any underprivileged area are open game to supplement their inadequate salaries.
That this is wrong is not in question here, however who in the Guyana Police Force (GPF) are these constables to use as examples to implement proper police procedures, who is not linked to some slippery businessman or have not been accused of benefiting from drug dealers?
For the same economic reasons as the young, some semi literate ranks, who fill the body requirements of the GPF.
The police patrols through Albouystown jostle each other for extortion space; it is indeed sickening, but so is the hundreds of junkies flowing in and out of the area; the hopelessness that presides in the heavily unemployed youth of the predominantly Afro Guyanese South Georgetown district contribute to this problem; these problems are interlinked and deepening; the patrols will ease for a while but the general overwhelming circumstances remain the same and like crows to carrion they will return.
