Deputy Crime Chief admits limited knowledge of diligence of alleged assassination plot probe

Deputy Crime Chief Rishi Dass has admitted that he could not speak on the diligence of the investigation into the alleged presidential assassination plot outside of what he oversaw and that his input in the matter was limited to following the legal advice received.

Dass was on Wednesday recalled for testimony before the Commission of Inquiry (CoI) into the alleged plot and the police force’s handling of the investigation.

During his first appearance, under questioning by Commissioner Paul Slowe, Dass had accepted the suggestion that it was reasonable to assume that proper work was not done during the investigation of the matter.
