Acting Commissioner of Police (COP) Junior Benjamin met with officers on February 21 after a High Court ruling by Justice Frank Seepersad quashed the results of the recent police examinations to promote officers from the rank of Inspector to Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) and ordered the police to restart the promotion process.
The case, initiated by Insp Mark Hernandez, challenged the fairness and legality of the promotion process.
Seepersad found numerous, serious flaws including automatic "outstanding" grades for all candidates without proper performance evaluations and failure to enforce a 50 per cent pass mark for the qualifying exam.
