Director of Public Prosecutions’ Office to Discontinue Proceedings Against Members of the Kollision Band
Basseterre, St. Kitts — July 8, 2026
The Director of Public Prosecutions’ Office (DPPO) advises that steps are being taken to discontinue
the criminal proceedings instituted against eight members of the Kollision Band, who were charged
by the Royal Saint Christopher and Nevis Police Force with playing music on a public road without
the required police permission.
The Royal Saint Christopher and Nevis Police Force has the important responsibility of maintaining
peace, good order and public safety throughout the Federation. In carrying out that responsibility,
the Police are required to enforce the law and, where offences are committed, particularly where
lawful police directives are not complied with, they have both the authority and the duty to
investigate and, where appropriate, to lay criminal charges. Compliance with the laws of the
Federation and with lawful directions given by police officers is essential to maintaining a safe,
orderly and peaceful society.
