SUSPENDED Commissioner of Police Erla Harewood-Christopher will learn on April 15 whether her legal challenge against the Police Service Commission (PSC) succeeds – one month before her tenure officially expires on May 15.

Justice Christopher Sieuchand will deliver his ruling on the lawsuit, in which Harewood-Christopher is contesting the PSC’s authority to suspend her amid an ongoing investigation into the procurement of sniper rifles for the Strategic Services Agency (SSA).

At a hearing on March 6, Senior Counsel Pamela Elder, representing Harewood-Christopher, objected to aspects of the PSC’s evidence. She specifically challenged portions of an affidavit submitted by Corey Harrison, the Director of Personnel Administration (DPA), arguing that it contained unsupported claims and hearsay.
