to reassure the public that this incident was handled promptly and professionally by the CBC, working closely with partner agencies. Our systems remain active and effective, and we continue
to closely monitor regional developments while ensuring that all actions taken are lawful, measured, and consistent with our international obligations. There is no cause for public concern,
and we will continue to keep the community informed through official channels”, said Hon. Nickolas DaCosta, Minister for District Administration and Home Affairs
