OPPOSITION Leader Pennelope Beckles says the government is attempting to blame crime on People’s National Movement (PNM) constituencies.

She was speaking yesterday at the PNM Sport and Family Day held at Nelson Mandela Park, Port of Spain.

She said as soon as the new administration came into office they had a state of emergency declared and despite telling the population they had a crime plan “they have no crime plan”.
