Barbados gun dealer sues Top Cop

(Barbados Nation) A licensed gun dealer, who spent a day and a half in jail after being charged with illegal storing of firearms, has filed lawsuits against Commissioner of Police Darwin Dottin.

Greg Cozier, managing partner of gun dealing company Sportsimports, was arrested and charged in February with storing ammunition at a place not stated on his licence.

But he has now set his sights on the top cop, suing Dottin for wrongful arrest and false imprisonment.

A third suit against the Attorney General for malicious prosecution is also on the cards.
