In March, Pointe-a-Pitre mayor Harry Durimel highlighted the increase in minors involved in criminal activities, with a significant rise from 12 percent to 38 percent.

Nighttime Curfew Announcement

Following a surge of violence, a nighttime curfew has been imposed for minors in Guadeloupe city, with Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin emphasizing the need for safety.

Statistics and Challenges

  • Guadeloupe city experiences six times more homicides and 20 times more armed robberies than the national average.
  • Youth are increasingly participating in criminal acts, as reported by AFP.

Implementation of Curfew

Youth under 18 will be required to adhere to an 8:00 pm curfew starting next week, lasting for two months to enhance security measures.
