Mixed reactions to Bunting’s ‘divine intervention’ statement

Apr 16, 2013

KINGSTON, Jamaica - Several stakeholder groups agreed yesterday that National Security Minister Peter Bunting sent the wrong signal about his commitment to tackling Jamaica's crime problem in statements he made on the weekend. While there was support for Bunting from several quarters, including one of his predecessors, he drew strong criticisms for statements some argued "he had no business making". "It does send a wrong signal to the criminals. You don't want to give them the hope that right now we are running out of options," said president of the UWI Guild of Students, Terron Dewar.
