I’ve been bothered for some time now by an incident that occurred a few months back wherein a Muslim man was charged with bestiality and instead of being prosecuted under the laws of Barbados, the Magistrate chose to hand him over to the Muslim community to deal with the crime.
What I cannot believe is that the Attorney General has done nothing to correct this horrendous wrong that has been committed by this Magistrate, and that Barbadians seem to have accepted this as the norm. Since when did Sharia Law become legal in Barbados? If a Rastafarian member was arrested for smoking a weed cigarette, would that person have been turned over to the Rastafarian community to deal with him. I DON’T THINK SO!!!!!!
This is not something to just sweep under the rug. It sets a very bad precedent and is sending the wrong signal about the laws of Barbados. I hope that this is brought to the attention of the Attorney General because I think that he’s the only one that can right this wrong.

Subject: lots over grown by bush and trees
Dear Sir or Madam
Casuarina Estates in the parish of St Philip is a new development, the vacant lots have been rapidly taken over by tall trees and bush it spoils the beauty and serenity of Cauarina Estates.
This development is home for many of us. There are retired persons (returning nationals) and some of us with young children who are now face with the possibility of rats, the dreaded African Snails, mosquitoes and persons with criminal intent who can find places to hide, observe and planned their executions.
With the assistance of the Ministry of health and S.p Mussons the persons who own these lots can be contacted and ask to clean them up, this action can result in a sixty to seventy percent clean up of properties. We would like the owners of these vacant lots to act responsibly and have the lots debushed.
We would like to see Casuarina Estates return to the state where we can look from one avenue in to the other across the landscape without being obstructed by unsightly over grown lots, dounks trees are also of great concern, all properties are easily seen from any angle to deter suspecting criminals, but the un-kept lots are posing serious difficulties.
We are there-fore ask the authorities to make the necessary checks in this development and have this problem corrected.
Yours Sincerely
Concern owner
