In­de­pen­dent ex­perts, both lo­cal and in­ter­na­tion­al, who spe­cialise in best prac­tices for com­mer­cial div­ing, will as­sist the po­lice as they in­ves­ti­gate Paria Fu­el Trad­ing Com­pa­ny for al­leged cor­po­rate manslaugh­ter.

Act­ing Po­lice Com­mis­sion­er Ju­nior Ben­jamin told Guardian Me­dia yes­ter­day that this was one of the up­dates giv­en to rel­a­tives of four divers who died in the Paria div­ing ac­ci­dent three years ago, dur­ing a meet­ing with of­fi­cers at the Po­lice Ad­min­is­tra­tion Build­ing in Port-of-Spain.

Ben­jamin said he did not want to di­vulge much in­for­ma­tion as the mat­ter was at a sen­si­tive stage, but ex­plained that ex­pert as­sis­tance plays a piv­otal role in the in­ves­ti­ga­tions.
