Head of the Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) Elston Baird

The Commission of Inquiry (CoI) into the March 2nd 2020 general elections yesterday learnt that based on documents provided by the Guyana Police Force (GPF) that most of the instructions between March 5 and March 6 of 2020 came from two senior ranks identified as Assistant Superintendents (ASP) Kingston and Nurse and it also heard testimony about the evacuation of the GECOM Chair from the Ashmins building.

According to credible sources, the commission had summoned the force to provide certain documents and names of all the ranks on duty during the March 2020 election. Those documents were submitted since Tuesday but witnesses were only called yesterday to testify on those documents.
