Police 'do not need outside help' on crime

THE Royal Bahamas Police Force does not need outside help to address this country’s worrying crime problem, Police Commissioner Ellison Greenslade told The Tribune.

During an interview with The Tribune this week, Mr Greenslade emphasised that Bahamian police know what the country’s crime problems are but have limited power to address key issues like the grant of bail for prolific offenders.

His comment came as concerns persist about violent crime, with 41 murders lodged for the year, up more than 30 per cent compared to this point last year.
