Depicted below are contraband items, weapons, and weaponised household items that #RSCNPF officers confiscated from persons before and during the 2023 #Jouvert celebrations. As we stated ahead of the Jโouvert, we were wholly committed to protecting the festive vibe and we did so with vim and vigour.
Persons choosing to arm themselves to go jamming is of extreme concern. The ripple effects created by acts of violence are far-reaching and intensely detrimental to all of #SKNSociety, not just the immediate victim(s) of the crime(s). The time has come for us to seriously think before we commit certain actions – think of your #family, think of your #friends, think of yourselves.
If you or anyone you know are desirous of a free #vacation, we strongly advise that you each try your luck at a raffle of some kind. Since its doors were opened, His Majestyโs Prison has never qualified as a hotel, resort, guest house, inn, or AirBnB. It does not accommodate optional check-outs; privacy is almost non-existent; the โtoursโ only stop at the Court House; and the views from the rooms do not inspire feelings of peace and tranquillity.
Nevertheless, as the main #lawenforcement agency in #StKittsNevis, our mandate is to maintain #law and #order in the Federation. As such, if we catch you being naughty, YOU WILL sleep at 1840.
