WILLEMSTAD - The RIOT team of the police and the Volunteer Corps Curaçao (VKC) conducted an exercise in Punda on Wednesday. "Protesters" were deployed at the Governor's Palace to cause unrest.
The training took place under the leadership of the emergency team of the Crisis Management & Disaster Response Organization. The officers had to push back the troublemakers and get the situation under control.
The exercise went well, said interim police spokesman Maurits Rosalina. The training allowed the team to prepare for a real demonstration and how to properly supervise it.
