KINGSTON, Jamaica, CMC – National Security Minister Peter Bunting is admitting that the fight against crime seems to be a futile endeavour in Jamaica.
“I am not embarrassed to say that right now as Minister of National Security, I am going through a kind of a dark night of the soul.
“We are trying very hard as a Ministry; I see the men and women of the security forces trying very hard, I see the leadership both of the police and the military working hard and so much effort is being made and yet so little headway, such slow headway is coming out in the statistics" he said, days after the wife of the Governor General, Lady Patricia Allen expressed growing frustration with the level of crime in the country.
