AFC lauds Police Complaints Authority for work on Quindon Bacchus murder probe

Khemraj Ramjattan

Leader of the Alliance For Change (AFC) Khemraj Ramjattan has lauded the work of the Police Complaints Authority (PCA) in recommending that three police officers be charged over their roles in the killing of Quindon Bacchus.

Based on the PCA’s findings and the advice of the Director of Public Prosecutions, Lance Corporal Kristoff DeNobrega was charged with murder last Tuesday, while Thurston Simon and newly promoted Cadet Officer Dameion McLennon were charged for obstruction of justice based on the allegation that they tried to cover up the manner in which Bacchus was killed. They were all remanded to prison.

At a press conference on Friday, Ramjattan said that the PCA-supervised investigation was a step in the right direction.
