The on­go­ing pro­mo­tion process for po­lice in­spec­tors who were seek­ing to move up to the rank of As­sis­tant Su­per­in­ten­dent of Po­lice (ASP) has been scrapped.

High Court Judge Frank Seep­er­sad quashed the process yes­ter­day morn­ing as he up­held a law­suit brought by In­spec­tor Mark Her­nan­dez, who par­tic­i­pat­ed in the pro­mo­tion ex­er­cise last year.

Jus­tice Seep­er­sad found that sus­pend­ed Po­lice Com­mis­sion­er Er­la Hare­wood-Christo­pher and Odyssey Con­sult­inc Lim­it­ed, the con­sul­tan­cy firm hired to as­sist with the process, made mis­steps at every stage of the three-tiered pro­mo­tion process.
