The Guyana Police Force’s Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) has launched an investigation into allegations that traffic ranks physically assaulted a minibus driver resulting in the man sustaining a dislocated shoulder and bruises to the body.
Stabroek News had reported last Friday that Route 40 driver Semong Sawh plans to take legal action against several traffic ranks of the Brickdam Police Station after he was allegedly beaten by them and injured. Stabroek News had contacted Divisional Commander Clifton Hicken regarding the incident but he had indicated that he was unaware of it and urged that Sawh visit him to lodge a formal complaint.
