St Vincent Police To Get Help From New York Counterparts


NEW YORK, CMC – St. Vincent and the Grenadines Police Commissioner Keith Miller says the New York Police Department (NYPD) and the United Nations Department of Peacekeeping Operations have promised to aid the local constabulary in a number of areas.

Miller, who wrapped up a week-long visit to New York over the weekend, told the Caribbean Media Corporation (CMC) that he had received promises of help during his talks with NYPD Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly and UN Security Chief Andrew Hughes.

We discussed a number of confidential things relating to law and order, and I will not be able to say (give specifics) in this interview,” said Miller, who was special guest of the Brooklyn-based St. Vincent and the Grenadines Ex-Police Association, which celebrated its 30th anniversary last week.

“I extended an invitation to him to come to St. Vincent and the Grenadines. I honestly hoped that he accepts that invitation, because I would like him to talk around things relating to law and order and criminality post 9/11,” Miller said.

Miller said Kelly has offered to help the local police force in various fields of training.

“What I did actually was to give an overview of things that are necessary for us in St. Vincent and the Grenadines and areas where he can help. So, when I get back, I’m going to do a critical needs assessment, and then we’ll be in communication from there.

“We talked around forensics, we talked around homicides investigations, we talked around crimes in the Caribbean generally and specifically as they regard St. Vincent and the Grenadines,” he said.

Miller said Hughes has offered one-year contracts to participate in peacekeeping operations, primarily in Africa.

He told me there are a number of vacancies, but these vacancies must be filled by serving police personnel.
The vacancies are an outstanding amount,” Miller said.

“Going out in these areas and working under these conditions, I think the men at home will have a better understanding of what it is to work in an international country under different circumstances, and then, they will bring back that experience to the force, which will do the force a lot of good really,” he added.
