Cort to Discuss Police Arrests

National Security Minister Dr Errol CortAntigua St John's - National Security Minister Dr Errol Cort has scheduled a meeting on Friday with officers within the police force.

Inside sources confirmed that a memo was dispatched inviting ranks from corporal to senior sergeant to the meeting at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium.

The circular did not provide any other information, but the sources said the word is that Senator Cort will address the officers on issues including the recent arrests of police officers.

The senator is scheduled to meet with the lower ranks at a separate meeting slated for the same venue next week.



Police officers were recently implicated in a gas station robbery during which an attendant was shot and later died from gunshot wounds.

There have been other incidents implicating police officers, one of which included insurance fraud where the officer reportedly absconded from the country.

These incidents have tarnished the image of the police in the eyes of the public, and Senator Cort is expected to discuss measures to arrest this problem.

good move

Dr. Cort, you must know that more needs to be done to deal with this issue. Its clear based on the recent incidents that these are not isolated issues. Specific action needs to be taken to weed out rogue cops. Accidental catches will not solve the problem. The action taken must help the public feel confidence in the police.
