Police Commissioner Allister Guevarro has hailed a significant drop in homicides in the capital city.
The Top Cop was speaking in Port of Spain at the opening of a police post on the Brian Lara Promenade, opposite the Nicholas Towers Friday.
He said the country’s capital is safe as the old days.
The police commissioner says this country has allowed the criminal element to hold citizens hostage and this will not be allowed to continue.
Commissioner Guevarro says the special powers given through the state of emergency has helped in part.
