Please read our previous post, here, to get a background to the following:
The following is an explanation of the Limited State of Emergency in force for Kingston and St. Andrew...yes friends, the parish of St. Andrew has been included.
A Limited State of Emergency means that there are restrictions placed on citizens within the Corporate Area (Kingston and St. Andrew). Namely:
1) The suspension of civil liberties
2) The cessation of freedom of movement and speech
3) If information passed is not considered in the national interest, then persons transmitting this information can be locked up
4) Nothing can be done to hamper the Security Forces.
The Limited State of Emergency is to be in force for up to a month.
Prime Minister, Bruce Golding, should be addressing the nation re this Limited State of Emergency.
