Citizen Security Secretariat Responds to First Homicide of 2025

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Citizen Security Secretariat Responds to First Homicide of 2025

Basseterre, St. Kitts – The Citizen Security Secretariat expresses its deepest sorrow over the tragic loss of Nurse Isalin Pitt, whose life was senselessly taken in an act of violence that has shaken the nation. We extend-1 heartfelt condolences to her family, friends, colleagues, and all those affected by this devastating incident.

We mourn not only the loss of a dedicated healthcare professional but also the disruption of a remarkable achievement in our nation’s recent history. For five consecutive months, the Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis had recorded no homicides—a feat not witnessed in over two decades. This period of peace was made possible through the unified efforts of our government, civil society, community groups, and citizens, working together under a comprehensive, community-based approach to crime prevention.

This tragedy serves as a stark reminder that we must not become complacent. The safety and security of our people must remain a top priority, and we reaffirm, with clarity and conviction, that we will not surrender our communities to criminal elements or to violent acts that compromise the peace and progress of our nation. Every citizen and resident has a right to feel safe in their home, in their neighbourhood, and in their country.

We call on all members of the public to continue partnering with the Royal St. Christopher and Nevis Police Force by sharing information, remaining vigilant, and upholding the spirit of unity that has brought us this far. Be your brother’s keeper. If you see something, say something. If you see something, say something—speaking up could be the very action that protects someone else from harm.

We also urge the public to make use of the support services offered by the Citizen Security Secretariat. These include counselling services for individuals and families, as well as community resilience training designed to strengthen neighbourhood structures, promote cohesion, and help prevent crime before it occurs.

This is not a time to lose hope. It is a time to recommit to each other and to our shared vision of a safer, more secure St. Kitts and Nevis. Across all lines that have traditionally divided us—political, social, generational—we have proven that when we work together, major successes are possible.

Let us honour the memory of those we have lost by continuing to build the kind of society where such losses become rare exceptions, not recurring headlines.
