Police Commissioner Allister Guevarro has confirmed that Deputy Police Commissioner Suzette Martin is still on active duty despite being investigated.
Responding to questions from the media at the Piarco Airport yesterday, the Top Cop said all questions on the matter should be directed to the Police Service Commission.
At a TTPS briefing on Monday, he said the PSC had been informed about the investigation, which relates to DCP Martin’s involvement in the 2022 arrest of firearms dealer Brent Thomas in Barbados.
Assistant Police Commissioner Curt Simon will lead the TTPS probe.
In April 2023, High Court judge Devindra Rampersad ruled that Mr Thomas’ arrest was tantamount to and “abduction”.
