BASSETERRE, St. Kitts - A 40-year-old man is currently in police custody charged with two counts of Making Use of Threatening Language to a woman and a juvenile.
In a statement from the Royal St. Christopher and Nevis Police Force (RSCNPF), the man’s name was given as Kelvin Taylor of Upper Fiennes Avenue.
The offences were committed on November 28 and December 15, 2022 respectively, and Taylor was charge on Friday (Dec. 16).
According to the statement, on Friday (Dec. 16), a video being circulated on social media was brought to the attention of Commissioner of Police Hilroy Brandy.
In that video, a man was heard threatening the life of a woman and a juvenile.
“The threats made were very unsettling and the Commissioner immediately instructed Officers to move swiftly on the matter,” the statement read.
It also noted that, once again, the High Command wants to make it clear that the RSCNPF has a zero-tolerance policy for all forms of domestic violence, and the same also goes for threats made against the life of
others.
“We condemn all such actions and when related matters are brought to the attention of the organisation, our Officers will do whatever is possible, within their powers under the law to bring the perpetrators of these crimes to justice,” the statement read.
