The information about those homicides is within the community and we just have to build a stronger bond with the community and continue to educate our people on how to deal with conflict because there is too much violence as a result of minor conflicts,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Rodney labelled the increase in homicide rates on the small island as \u201cdisturbing\u201d, further declaring, \u201cone is already too much.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn a country such as Dominica 10 and 15 homicides is very disturbing, but the community [has] to step forward and say enough is enough because they know where the guns are and who is committing the crimes and they must step forward to share the information with law enforcement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He noted that an increase in criminal activities is not only limited to Dominica but a threat to all member states of the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA threat to one is a threat to all,\u201d the Police Commissioner posited. \u201cThe prevalence of firearms in our small member state is a challenge. There are too many illegal guns around us and too many gun-related offenses which are now causing an increase in our homicide rates which is disturbing to us. We are just hoping that as Caribbean people we will start to see the value of tranquillity and defusing conflicts without violence and that is something I promote not just for Antigua and Barbuda but the whole OECS member state.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on challenges faced by law enforcement within the OECS to effectively execute their duties, Rodney revealed that their limitation on certain resources has been a major hindrance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe do not have access to enough of the technology that is available,\u201d he noted. \u201cThe other challenges that government departments face in terms of the demand shortage, we also within the various police force in the OECS suffer the same thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rodney continued, \u201cbut because we have a strong unity among ourselves, as part of the RSS(Regional SecuritySystem), we work together, we train together and we support each other when there is a crisis in another country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As such expressed that this collaboration \u201cmakes it easier to overcome some of the challenges that we face.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dominica-born, Antigua-based Atlee Rodney, the Police Commissioner of the Royal Police Force of Antigua and Barbuda, says greater involvement is needed by the Dominican populace in curbing the country\u2019s homicide rate.
