Police Commissioner Allister Guevarro has addressed criticism surrounding the policing of protests during the SOE, rejecting claims that officers have treated some demonstrations differently from others.
“That is very far from the truth,” he said while speaking to reporters in Tobago this morning.
Guevarro pointed to demonstrations held following the police-involved shooting death of Joshua Samaroo, saying officers had facilitated several protests before intervening when organisers breached the emergency regulations.
