Dear Editor,

I refer to the letter captioned “Policeman did not testify at the Suddie Court because case was adjourned” (07.09.07) and the detailed response from the police which referred to an investigation conducted by the police office of Professional Responsibility (OPR)which found that the policeman was not to blame for not being present where he was called to give evidence.

Several persons including myself were in court at the time and can support that what Mr Baliram Persaud wrote was the truth. The constable was there earlier but not when he was needed to testify.

I am disappointed at the OPL’s report which can be seen as a cover-up.

Yours faithfully,

George Evans
