Chief Constable Andrew Foo has come in for censure from the City Council after he delayed launching an investigation into the disappearance of a fence at Russell Square, Stabroek by over a week.
Foo came in for criticism at a statutory meeting on Monday after the council learned that the investigation only started on Friday last when he received correspondence from acting Town Clerk Sherry Jerrick.
Jerrick told the council that she queried the status of the investigation into the missing fence last Wednesday and Foo informed her that he was still awaiting the correspondence from her office informing him of council decision ordering the probe.
