Bridgetown
Three young women who went to the media earlier this week to highlight what they've called several issues at a shelter for battered women have been removed from the facility.
The women who met with members of the media yesterday, said officials at the home informed that they were in breach of the shelter’s confidentiality agreement and had until 6 p.m. that day to leave.
She said that among their concerns was the removal of a child because her mother scolded and spanked her.
The young lady said the group's call to the media was not intended to put the shelter in jeopardy.
She stressed that they never revealed its location and before this they have always abided by the rules.
“They are saying we breached the rules, but we did not give our names or the name or location of the shelter. It’s because we went to the papers,” the woman said.
