National Security Minister: No Offical Request Yet From CCHR For Access To Prisons

Minister of National Security, Fitzgerald Hinds, says he has not received any official request from the Caribbean Centre for Human Rights for access to the nation’s prisons.

The organisation is headed by former Independent Senator; Diana Mahabir-Wyatt, who served as an Independent Senator from 1991 to 2000.

Minister Hinds made the disclosure while responding to a question posed to him by the Opposition in the Senate on Tuesday afternoon.

Minister Hinds outlined the procedures which must be followed should an organisation be interested in seeking to get permission to gain access to the nation’s prisons.
