Hector Broomes, Gilibeth Rodriguez to be charged with assault

Dear Editor,

An online article published by Citizens’ Report on July 23, 2018 under the caption `Minister threatens Commander with dismissal after son assaults girlfriend’ was vehemently denied by the Commander, Senior Superintendent Kevin Adonis.

A thorough investigation into the alleged incident was conducted and legal advice has been obtained for the undermentioned persons to be charged as follows under the Summary Jurisdiction (Offences) Act Chapter 8:02.

• Hector Broomes with one count of Assault Causing Actual Bodily Harm and 

• Gilibeth Rodriguez with two counts, one for Assault and the other for Throwing Missiles. 

They will appear in court, soonest. 

Yours faithfully,

Jairam Ramlakhan

Superintendent 

Public Relations and Press Officer
