It is the hope of the JES to assist in improving the current system from the point of investigation of a crime to the point of the delivery of justice at the court system.Through the JES training, which will be provided to officials in the justice system, including law enforcement, the judiciary and the courts, it is expected to assist in this aspect to ensure justice is served.Weeks away from the start date,Jerseys NFL Cheap, a team from the JES, headed by its International Programmes Manager, Evelyn Neaman, has been in discussion with officials from the Chambers of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Ministry of Legal Affairs and the Guyana Police Force (GPF) to promote the justice reform project.The?JES project?is a grant initiative funded by the Canadian Government to the tune of CAN$750,000. It will be implemented by the British Colombia-based non-governmental organisation.The JES works with judiciaries to strengthen systems along the continuum from what is done upon arrival at the crime scene and how investigations are done by police, to how the cases are prosecuted by the prosecutors and how the judges and magistrates hear the case and render the verdicts.Yesterday, the team sat with Minister of Legal Affairs and Attorney General, Basil Williams, at his Carmichael Street,Wholesale Nike NFL Jerseys, Georgetown office to discuss the project which has been dubbed “Strengthening the Guyanese Criminal Justice System (SGCJS)”.Also present were representatives from the Canadian High Commission and State Counsel from the AG Chambers.Minister Williams said that they discussed components of Crime Scene Investigations and investigation by police for the purposes of taking evidence for successful prosecution to the Courts.He highlighted that training must be given to magistrates and state prosecutors along with police prosecutors as part of the entire process.According to the Attorney General, training of magistrates, state and police prosecutors are among areas that will see improvement through the implementation of the project.“We have identified with the components in the programme that is being administered by the JES out of British Columbia, Canada. We believe it is very relevant here because you know the normal complaints is that lawyers take advantage of the police prosecutors and if lawyers happen to win the case in the assizes against the state prosecutors they then blame the police investigations,” he remarked.According to Williams, once successfully implemented the project would ensure that there would be a substantial diminution in the type of claims that are being made in securing successful prosecutions in the courts.Also speaking to the media, the JES’s International Programs Manager indicated that activities can commence as early as next month, providing the training supplies and equipment arrive in time.The project is being launched this week by way of a series of meetings, with senior officials of the Guyana Police Force, Chambers of the Director of Public Prosecutors (DPP), said Neaman.“The scope of the activities include working with the police on crime scene protection and working with investigators on investigations; working with the DPP on helping the police prosecutors, and working with the Magistrates’ courts,” expressed Neaman.She said it will be a two-year project, funded by the Department of Foreign Affairs in Canada, through their Anti-Crime Programme. According to Neaman, they have done similar projects in Central America and Ethiopia.The project will start in Georgetown. “What we want to ensure is that we almost touch all the people who are in the police, the Prosecution and the Magistrates in Georgetown. We feel that if we can build a core of very good leaders then it could be replicated in other areas,NFL Jerseys Supply,” expressed Neaman.Asked why they had chosen to bring the project to Guyana, Neaman said it was through the recommendations of the former Canadian High Commissioner, Dr. Nicole Giles,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, who is also the former Director of the Anti-Crime Programm
