Justice Minister Delroy Chuck
By Halshane Burke
Justices of the Peace have been urged to report all forms of wrongdoing that come to their attention.
Justice Minister Delroy Chuck says every illegal act that is ignored leads to a compounding of the lawlessness that already exists in the country.
He encouraged the JPs to be vigilant and play their parts in contributing to national security.
"Every wrongdoing that you see, expose it, condemn it - whether it is crime, corruption, traffic offences, malpractice, misbehaviour, garbage throwing all about the place. We need to just condemn all wrongdoing, and expose those who are engaged in it. At the same time, I beg you, no engage in any," he pleaded.
Mr. Chuck said it is important that Jamaica try to move on the "right and proper path", noting that the country is being hurt by "the amount of crime that keeps many of our citizens away".
He was speaking at a sensitisation session for Justices of the Peace in Clarendon this week.
