THE NEW Commissioner of Police (CoP) has chalked up an impressive investigative record in tracking down terrorists who left TT to join the fight for ISIS in Syria, dismantling the operations of Chinese narco-traffickers and other transnational criminals, according to top-ranking Special Branch officers.

But his record and that of the dedicated team under his command in the intelligence and investigations division are shielded from public view to protect the informants who helped build the cases against those criminals.

Many police officers, both senior and junior ranks, were oblivious of Allister Guevarro when his name was listed as the top nominee from the Police Service Commission to come before Parliament for approval as CoP, making history as the first intelligence officer to lead the service.
