Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar says she has decided, on the advice of the Attorney General, to declassify and release a report showing the results of wider actions taken by the protective services to reduce crime and criminality during the State of Emergency.
In a social media post on Sunday, Persad-Bissessar said crime declined across all police divisions during the six-month SoE period.
She said 5,802 people were arrested during the period, with 3,552, or 61.2 per cent, charged.
