New Board Appointed at GIS

New Board Appointed at GIS

Minister of Home Affairs Wilfred Abrahams has announced that the entire board of the Government  Industrial School has been sacked.

This follows an investigation into photos of a naked student in solitary confinement. The images were circulated on social media and sparked national outrage.

During a press conference held this evening, Mr. Abrahams said the implementation of a new board, chaired by Apostle Dr. Lucille Baird will seek to garner renewed public trust in the institution.

However, former Deputy Chair of the GIS board Marsha Hinds Layne who has been very vocal about her displeasure over the matter, said she learned of the board being dissolved 5 minutes before the press conference.

Mr. Abrahams also said solitary confinement in such a manner will no longer be permitted at the institution.
