Issued by: Office of the President
The President wishes to convey his congratulations to the police on the arrest of Colin Chauke last night. Though our police service is working under difficult conditions and is often the subject of easy criticism, achievements like this are a product of the dedication of men and women of integrity who are determined that we win the war against the criminals.
The re-arrest of Colin Chauke is a mark of the determination of government and police to take whatever measures are needed to apprehend those who commit crime, especially the syndicates, whatever resources they may have and whatever assistance they may get from others.
