A police officer facing corruption charges has lost his lawsuit challenging the decision to bypass him for promotion.

In a recent judgment, High Court Judge Devindra Rampersad dismissed Inspector David Subero’s case against the Commissioner of Police over the decision not to promote him while criminal charges against him were pending.

Justice Rampersad found that the decision could not be faulted.
