Gambia Police Force Reports Improved Human Rights Compliance
The Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF) has undergone significant transformation since 2016, focusing on policy reform, capability development, and cultural shifts to enhance transparency and public engagement. This transformation is viewed as a response to the evolving criminal landscape and aims to align the force with the principles of being 'A force for good.' The article discusses the historical context of policing in Jamaica, highlighting past policy responses to organized crime, such as the 1974 Gun Court Act and the expansion of police powers during a State of Emergency. Additionally, human rights concerns have emerged regarding police practices, including the use of body cameras during high-risk operations, with criticisms directed towards activists who may lack direct experience in these situations. Meanwhile, the Gambian Police Force has reported improvements in human rights compliance and responsiveness to governance, attributing these advancements to ongoing security sector reforms and community partnerships. This broader context reflects the international discourse on police reform and the balancing act between law enforcement effectiveness and civil liberties.
