30 More Illegals Structures Torn Down

NASSAU, BAHAMAS – Monday morning began with the sounds of bulldozers, breaking glass, and torn structures for the residents of the All Saints Way Shantytown as the unregulated community’s demolition, which began late last year, continued.
Buildings Control Officer Craig Delancy, explains.
There was significant law enforcement presence during the exercise with both police and immigration officers on the ground.
Superintendent Stephen Carey, working on the unregulated community action task force says safety measures take place before and during the operations.
Residents were reluctant to speak on camera with us this morning, many quietly watching in disappointment as bulldozers tore through homes.
Demolition on this particular shantytown began back in November but paused over the holiday period.
That month the Davis Administration carried out its promise to execute its shantytown eradication policy. At the time, structures were demolished in the community, which is located in the Carmichael area.
Residents there were notified on October 2 that the buildings were marked for demolition, and they needed to clear them. It came weeks after the Kool Acres Shantytown was torn down in eastern New Providence.
Carey had this advice for other shantytown residents.
