Crime prevention workshop postponed to next year

A crime prevention workshop, which was expected to be attended by the Minister of Public Security, Khemraj Ramjattan, was cancelled unexpectedly yesterday morning, following the unavailability of police officers.

 On Friday evening, a media invitation was sent by the Ministry of Public Security for media to attend a crime prevention workshop at the Parfaite Harmonie Primary School on the West Bank of Demerara.

According to the invitation, the workshop was an initiative of the One National Youth Movement and the Government of Guyana, and was supposed to feature remarks by Minister Ramjattan.  However, when this newspaper arrived at the location, the school was void of any signs that an activity was scheduled to be held there.
