City constables put on foot patrol as probe of ‘serious offence’ underway

Three City Constabulary ranks have been assigned to foot patrol duties in the compound of City Hall after being accused of a “serious offence,” which is now the subject of an internal investigation.

Although the constables are accused of committing an offence that has been described as a breach of trust with the potential to tarnish the reputation of the constabulary and the council, city officials have been tightlipped on the allegations against them.

After a statutory meeting on Monday, Mayor Patricia Chase-Green on Monday told reporters that the incident occurred at the Bourda Market earlier this month.
