Four cops being grilled over teacher’s death

As the police continue to probe the circumstances under which secondary school teacher Kescia Branche met her demise, four police ranks have now been detained, two of whom are suspected to have played an integral role in commissioning the crime.

Among the police ranks in custody are two police constables who were seen leaving the Blue Martini Night club, Lamaha Street while on duty with Branche. One of constables remains under close arrest while the other was detained late Tuesday evening after reporting for duty.

Stabroek News was reliably informed yesterday that two other policemen were held for questioning after telephone records revealed that they were in constant contact with one of the constables after he left the night club.
