Dear Editor,
On Easter Monday, April 9, 2012, to my utmost surprise I learnt that the police in ‘G’ Division, that is the Essequibo police, held a bar-b-que and lime in the police compound next to the Richard Faikal Police Training School, where loud, lewd and vulgar music was played.
The fact is that the Suddie Public Hospital is not more than about sixty yards from where the music was played, and I am sure that this was much to the annoyance and discomfort of the patients there.
The question is, if this is going to be the pattern of behaviour displayed by those who are supposed to be there to uphold the law as it relates to noise nuisance, then what actions are members of the public to expect when a report of noise nuisance is made to the police in this division?
Yours faithfully,
Archie W Cordis
