new ranksGeorgetown: The Guyana Police Force has boosted its strength by an additional 63 ranks as it prepares to play its part in securing the nation during Guyana’s 50th Anniversary of Independence.

After rigorous training and discipline, the recruits from two courses were welcomed into the fold of the Guyana Police Force with the mandate to uphold the organization’s motto of ”Service and Protection”.
The recruits, who are now Constables, were drawn from Courses 338 and 339. They commenced training at various points from January, under the theme “Training to build and strengthen the competencies of ranks, through partnerships and monitoring of performances.”
During the passing out parade, yesterday at the Police Officers’ Training Centre, Camp Road, Training Officer for the Force, Assistant Commissioner, Paul Williams, told the new recruits to refrain from corruption since it will destroy their career.
He also told them that they are now in a profession and advised them not to follow peer pressure since it can cost them their career.
