Past and present stake­hold­ers in the crim­i­nal jus­tice sys­tem agree that Po­lice Com­mis­sion­er Al­lis­ter Gue­var­ro has per­formed well dur­ing his first 100 days in of­fice as head of the TTPS and are hope­ful that he can main­tain this mo­men­tum through­out his three-year term.

Gue­var­ro was ap­point­ed as this coun­try’s 24th Po­lice Com­mis­sion­er in June af­ter gov­ern­ment and op­po­si­tion MPs unan­i­mous­ly agreed on his se­lec­tion dur­ing a sit­ting of the Low­er House.

Gue­var­ro, 49, pre­vi­ous­ly served as head of the Spe­cial Branch, a po­lice unit as­signed to pro­vide se­cu­ri­ty to high-lev­el of­fi­cials and dig­ni­taries (in­clud­ing the Prime Min­is­ter) and ma­jor in­ves­ti­ga­tions.
