‘We need HMP investigated’ – Mr Ray S. Frett
“From simply reading that story and conducting my own little investigations it is very clear that they are not doing their jobs there at Balsum Ghut to the extent that Ganja farms grow big and not one person reported it or had knowledge of it,” said Mr. Ray S. Frett.
“We not asking the politicians in the opposition to pick up we want to hear the representatives of the Seventh and Eighth District following this lead and call for an urgent investigation and a full report and we want to hear about it from them in the House of Assembly urgently because is any and every thing getting 1st, 2nd and 3rd reading these day getting done at one sitting. We the public making this call now. We want to see and hear immediate actions,” added Mr Frett.
He said that based on information prison offers are aware of a long line of illegal activities that takes place at HMP which they continue to allegedly condone and encourage.
“They know of people bring all sorts of things that should not be given to prisoners in there, they even carry drugs, not only ganja and this is a known fact because I tested them and they didn’t even know they were being tested,” he claimed.
He threw stones at the responsible Minister under whose portfolio HMP falls, Honourable Myron V. Walwyn.
“He (Hon. Walwyn) all over the news trying to decide who should go to prison and he should be the first one going there because he [allegedly] knows of these things and he is doing nothing about it. He [is] talking about ‘rehabbing’ prisoners. That minister needs to [be quiet] and pay attention to the right things, we didn’t put him there to talk we put him there to act,” said the businessman.
He said that based on his investigations the farm at Balsum Ghut has the potential to produce large amounts of produce to provide certain markets especially with eggs and peppers and other cash crops.
“They need to extend the farming activities up there. Prisoners are there not be fed and fattened on our backs; it’s a form of punishment for crimes committed. Let them work.”
This news site tried to make contact with the Superintendent of Prison Mr. Foot over the weekend on these claims but was unsuccessful in reaching him.
