‘Sexy’ Dep. Comm. Karimbaksh Faces Fresh Allegations as Authorities Remain Mum

Deputy Commissioner of Police Fizal Karimbaksh, one of Guyana Police Force’s most senior officers and Head of the Special Organised Crime Unit (SOCU), is facing fresh allegations of sexual assault, rape and threats against a female police inspector, while the authorities have so far remained publicly silent on the matter.

The allegations have placed renewed scrutiny on Karimbaksh’s conduct and on how the Police Force handles serious complaints against senior officers.

A female police officer has filed an official complaint alleging that Karimbaksh raped and sexually assaulted her on at least two occasions. She also reportedly alleged that he threatened her and pointed a firearm at her. Senior police officers have confirmed that a complaint was received.
