GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – The Guyana government has given the green light for the establishment of a SWAT Unit within the Guyana Police Force (GPF)
A statement from the Ministry of Home Affairs noted that with a SWAT Unit, the GPF would be better placed to make specialised interventions, thereby, ensuring law and order is maintained, and prospective threats are neutralised.
The government said it had already engaged the services of ‘The Emergence Group’ (TEG), a Washington-based consultancy firm, to obtain the requisite assistance in rolling out this initiative.
