DEPUTY Police Commissioner, Intelligence and Investigations Suzette Martin said full, transparent and independent investigations will be done into three incidents where police shot and killed four men on April 25.

In a statement, she urged the public to avoid confrontations with police officers and to “refrain from engaging in actions that may escalate tensions.

“We urge all citizens to allow the investigative processes to take their course and assure the national community of our commitment to transparency, accountability and the safety of all,” she was quoted as saying in a release issued by the TTPS on April 26 following three police shootings on April 25.
