Minister of Justice and Constitutional Affairs, Delroy Chuck has noted that persons aware that their family members are in possession of firearms should urge them to turn the weapons over to the police.

Mr. Chuck made the call earlier today at the Annual Custos Church Service at the Mandeville Baptist Church in Mandeville, Manchester.

The minister emphasized that if these persons choose to keep the weapons, they will face the law. 

He noted that justices of the peace and residents of Manchester should seek to assist the police in identifying and exposing gun men.
