Today, Supreme Court Justice Westmin James handed down a decision in the case brought against the Belize Police Department by Greg Nunez and myself. Legal recourse was sought after we felt that our rights had been violated because without any probable cause or intelligence to suggest that we were involved in any criminal activity, police officers took our picture during a stop and search on August fourth of 2020 that yielded nothing. The judge ruled that it is unconstitutional.
Leslie Mendez, Attorney-at-law
“They brought their claims on the grounds that this practice actually constitutes a violation of their right to protection against arbitrary searches, their right to privacy through the taking of the photographs as well as the right to human dignity. And today we got the decision from Justice Westmin James confirming that indeed the practice does constitute the violation of their rights under the constitution.”
