Dear Editor,
The recent murmurings over the killing
of Shafeek Bacchus and phone calls to Mr.
Gajraj from Axcel Williams have many
implications - both positive and negative.
Firstly it is evident that the police
are doing what is required to fight crime.
Having informers to trace criminals is
definitely among the most effective crime
fighting measures in the book.
Members of civil society and we the
innocent are of little help to the police
in tracking down criminals. Metropolitan
countries have shown us that the criminals
are the best alliances in the apprehension
of other criminals.
In the Caribbean it is against the code
of the street to be an 'Informa.' As a
matter of fact the rule of the street is 'Informa
must dead!' These current efforts to blow
the recent developments out of proportion
would only solidify this code. This would
further impede the battle against crime in
Guyana.
