Was the SWAT deployment necessary?

Dear Editor, 

Last evening, the Guyana Police Force deployed a SWAT team to arrest Mr. Brutus. I wish to remind the Guyana Police Force that the rule of law must apply uniformly, regardless of one’s political stature or connections. The deployment of a SWAT team raises alarms about the use of excessive force and the prioritization of policing tactics.

Sincerely,

Pt.Ubraj Narine, JP, COA
