The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) has instructed the Guyana Police Force (GPF) to institute charges against Roscoe McIntyre, a man accused of setting fire to the Arakaka Police Outpost on Friday.
The GPF said McIntyre is expected to make his appearance at the Port Kaituma Police Station today to answer to the charge of setting fire to a public place.
Stabroek News had reported that the fire was set to the outpost on Friday at 2.30am while several police officers were locked inside. However, the lawmen were able to escape and extinguish the fire before the building was severely damaged.
