DAIC condemns break in a Muslim Store

Police on the scene of the break-in on June 15

The Dominica Association of Industry & Commerce (DAIC), Dominica’s premier Private Sector representative body strongly condemns the break and entry of the Digicel building and theft at the Muslim Store, Universal Elegance which occurred on June 15th, 2017.

Unnecessary actions such as this only add to the challenges businesses have to overcome as they seek to support the local economy.

We applaud the local authorities for their work thus far and ask anyone with information to come forward to the local authorities or to Crime Stoppers.

The DAIC reiterates its support for the efforts of crime fighting agencies such as Crime Stoppers which continue to work with the police and Government to fight crime because of the negative impact this has on business and society.

The DAIC encourages businesses and the general public to continue to work with these organizations to assist in the reduction of criminal activity in our country.

    Was it really that important to say a Muslim store? Why you cannot just say a store. This poison that is floating around do not let it take residents in Dominica because when you open that can of worms it will not be easy to put the lid back on. Take Heed.

    We are in total support of the DAIC condemnation of the robbery to the Muslim store and against all acts of vandalism and robbery against businesses, domestic property and of person. Now lets hear DAIC condemn the lack of transparency and accountability in our governance. Lets hear the DAIC for example call on the Labour party to give an account and the source of funds for the purchase of a multi million dollar property in Roseau; lets hear an account for the source of monies attributed to all the sewo including the recent fathers day galore in the Gardens – robbery is robbery, is robbery and we do not want to assume that any political party in or out of government is robbing the people and the country blind. DAIC you have started don’t give up lets continue condemning and calling for transparency, accountability, good governance and if necessary jail for those found wanting. Time to call a spade a spade!.

    This robbery has created a great financial loss for the owners and also for the insurance company. It may also have caused lack of employment.
    All robberies, once reported are to be condemned.
    As for the robber (s), God knows who you are. You are not hidden from Him. You did not escape from his scrutiny of your heartless and evil works. Just wait and see what will occur to you, whether it takes a few months or years to the end of your life and eternal judgment.
