Hinds: Increased security for public officials threatened in voice note following police investigation

National Security Minister Fitzgerald Hinds says that additional security for public figures threatened in a recent voice note is not out of the question.

The voice note currently being circulated on social media has been linked to the country’s newest criminal gang, the Ghost Gang.

The voice note, which has been widely shared, purportedly made threats against the Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley, parliamentarians, judges, crooked police officers, councillors, gang leaders and the police commissioner.

The profanity-filled recording included a warning that members of the gang have guns to take out their targets.

Minister Hinds told the Power Breakfast Show this morning that there will be a police investigation into the incident and depending on the results security will be enhanced for public officials mentioned in the video.
