Home­land Se­cu­ri­ty Min­is­ter Roger Alexan­der says the Trinidad and To­ba­go Po­lice Ser­vice should be al­lowed to in­ves­ti­gate its own of­fi­cers, as rel­a­tives and friends of Joshua Sama­roo ex­pressed de­creas­ing trust in the ser­vice.

Speak­ing at an aer­o­bics burnout at his con­stituen­cy of­fice in Tu­na­puna yes­ter­day, Alexan­der, in his usu­al para­ble style of re­spond­ing, ques­tioned why oth­er fra­ter­ni­ties in­ves­ti­gate them­selves, but the po­lice could not.

“If you have a prob­lem with the le­gal fra­ter­ni­ty, who do you go to? Are they not lawyers? If you’re deal­ing with the doc­tors, who do you go to if you have a prob­lem with the doc­tors? If you’re deal­ing with the teach­ers, who do you go to? I will not even an­swer that ques­tion fur­ther. I hope you un­der­stand where I’m go­ing with this.”
