Beckles demands answers on SOE results

Op­po­si­tion Leader Pen­ne­lope Beck­les is de­mand­ing that Prime Min­is­ter Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar and the Min­is­ter of Home­land Se­cu­ri­ty Roger Alexan­der ac­count for the re­sults of the State of Emer­gency as the lat­est SOE comes to an end.

In a Face­book post on Fri­day, Beck­les ques­tioned what the rolling states of emer­gency since April 2025 had achieved, how much they had cost and what would hap­pen to peo­ple who were de­tained un­der Pre­ven­tive De­ten­tion Or­ders.

She al­so called on Home­land Se­cu­ri­ty Min­is­ter Roger Alexan­der, who she said had ac­cept­ed re­spon­si­bil­i­ty for the State’s ac­tions un­der the PDOs, to pro­vide an­swers on the out­come of the de­ten­tions.
