No way police could have been involved in No.48 robbery – Felix

Former police commissioner Winston Felix says  there was no way ranks in Corentyne, Berbice could have been involved in an armed robbery as is being claimed as the only working vehicle they had at the time was at the No. 51 station where a vehicular accident was being investigated.

Felix, while describing the situation in Berbice as “one big mess”, said too that the ranks in this area lack the basic resources but are still expected to perform their duties efficiently.

Several attempts on Saturday  to contact Police Commissioner Leroy Brumell for an update on the robbery allegation and the apparent lack of resources in that section of Berbice were futile.

Felix made these statements in wake of the recent incident where all the ranks from the No. 51 Police Station were transferred
