Mr. Slowe should disclose what he knows about the Lindo Creek mass murder

Jun 11, 2010 Letters

Dear Editor,
Mr. Paul Slowe has been a loose canon over the past few days making headline after headline in the daily newspapers and blowing the whistle on the Guyana Police Force (GPF) in which he served for many years.
But one must ask, why outgoing Assistant Commissioner Slowe didn’t say anything while he was in the job? If he cared so much about the security sector in which he served, then he should have spoken out on the wrong things being done within the GPF and security sector whilst in office. But Guyanese are always afraid to speak their minds. And plus, why would one speak out during their tenure in the GPF and other sectors in Guyana when they are afraid of discrimination?
I admire Mr. Slowe’s candor and courage to speak out about the well-known corrupt police force in Guyana with faults more than anything else. But maybe if he had spoken a year or a month earlier, I’d respect him a little more than I do. Where are we going in this country when there are only a few who speak out and call matters how they see them? The attack on Mr. Kissoon of the Kaieteur News is a symbolic attack on all outspoken speakers in Guyana who stand up for justice and for what is right in Guyana. We all got fecal matter in our faces.
Will that silence these speakers? I hope not.
It is rather sad that only now when Mr. Slowe is making his way out of life in the public service and Guyana Police Force that he is bringing past issues to the fore.
Putting the contents of Mr. Slowe’s revelation about various security matters during his tenure in the force, though, one must really question the timing of all of this and also if there is a motive. I would like Mr. Slowe to start letting the cat out of the bag about Lindo Creek, one of Guyana’s most popular unsolved mass murder mystery, among other ‘mysteries’.
The events over the past couple of days speak volumes of this the GPF.
