Police Service Commission working on case to be filed against Top Cop

The Police Service Commission (PSC) is determined to file a case against Police Commissioner Nigel Hoppie for his continued refusal to effect the promotions announced last month.

“We are working out the fine details but jump high or jump low there will be a case filed,” Assistant Commissioner (ret’d) Clinton Conway told Stabroek News last evening.

One week ago the Commission Chair, assistant commissioner (ret’d) Paul Slowe wrote to  Hoppie directing that he honour the promotions list published by the constitutional body on June 28 or risk legal action. Hoppie has acknowledged receipt of Slowe’s ultimatum but is still to comply.
