British High Commissioner to Guyana, Greg Quinn yesterday said that there is no place for corruption and law enforcement officials who are guilty of this crime must be sent to jail.
“There is no place for corruption with the security agencies in Guyana. If officials and individuals cannot work with honesty and integrity then they should be drummed out, prosecuted and imprisoned as necessary…Security agencies cannot expect respect and co-operation from the public, if they themselves are not willing to operate within and be subject to the law. All of you here today can and must set the example for everybody else to follow”, he said.
He was speaking at the launch of an anti-corruption training programme for 30 persons from several law enforcement agencies at the Police Training Centre at Eve Leary. The programme is being funded by the United Kingdom.
