The Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) has completed its investigation into the death of robbery accused Peter Headley, who was fatally shot by a policeman more than two months ago and the report is currently being reviewed by the Police Complaints Authority (PCA).

“The OPR (Office of Professional Responsibility) that was tasked with initiating the investigation would have completed their work and made submission to the Chairman of the Police Complaints Authority who is designated to review the work and as we speak he is currently reviewing it,” Commissioner of Police (ag) Nigel Hoppie recently disclosed.

When this newspaper enquired about the status of the investigation yesterday, Deputy Director of the Guyana Police Force (GPF) Corporate Communication Unit, Stan Gouveia forwarded a video recording of Hoppie’s comment, which he said was the latest in the matter.
