One of the policemen who tortured a 15-year-old boy at the Leonora police station in 2009 has been fired on the instructions of Minister of Public Security Khemraj Ramjattan who says that he will write to the Police Service Commission (PSC) requesting the sacking of the other officer involved.

This Guy is the biggest DUNCE on the Planet A Minister cannot tell the PSC or any other Commission what to do. It is simply Unconstitutional. In fact, even the President cannot tell a Commission what to do!!!

Minister Ramjattan should also sanction Timehri police constable Devin Mahendra Singh who allegedly inserted a condom-covered baton into Colwyn Harding's anus in November 2013.

Jagdeo was the biggest dunce for allowing Guyana to disintegrate morally.

It might take decades to undo the damage the PPP did, especially to youth and young women.

Please do not get me wrong. I agree any officer involved in activities that are unlawful must be fired. However, there is a process in place and I expect that the minister will follow the process. They promised change. The minister should have instructed the commissioner to re look at the case and then have him refer it to the appropriate authoritise. He cannot over-step by micromanaging. His role is policy formulation, not admin of the police force. Rhee was accused by them of doing this, now they are doing the same thing. Have things changed or will they remain the same?

Who should fire Commissioner of Police Mr. Seelall Persaud for his roll in promoting the two torturers?

‘Baton-rape cop’ now accused of torturing Linden man

Devin Singh

DEVIN SINGH

[www.inewsguyana.com] June 3 – After being accused of baton-raping a young man in 2013 at the Timehri Police Station, Policeman Devin Singh, is again being accused of torture.

Singh and Rosyln Tilbury were jointly charged with assaulting Colwyn Harding while he was in custody at the Timehri Police Station between November 1 and 13, 2013.

Now Singh is being accused of the torture of Linden resident, Adina Bowen and others. Bowen is now in the Camp Street jail facing a joint charge of murder for which he claims he was beaten into confession.

Adina Bowen

Bowen’s relatives claimed that on May 05, Singh and other ranks swooped down on Bowen’s residence and arrested his fiancé Latisha Garraway while claiming that a firearm magazine was discovered in the home.

Bowen was not at home at the time, but when he found out that his girlfriend was arrested, he went down to the McKenzie Police station, where he was told of an allegation of murder against him. He denied the allegation.

Bowen’s relatives claimed that Singh and other officers proceeded to beat and torture him, “forcing a plastic bag containing a noxious gas that was sprayed from a black and red can and placed over Bowen head, suffocating and causing him to lose consciousness.”

Bowen told relatives that he was awaken by water being thrown to his face and more blows about his body, generally in the region of his abdomen and back. When he refused to sign what he now believes is a confession statement, he was again beaten until he eventually signed.
