Commissioner of Police Seelall Persaud yesterday urged 230 new police officers to ensure they resist the various temptations that will come their way throughout their careers.
He was speaking at a passing out parade, which was held under the theme ‘Training to build and strengthen the competencies of ranks, through partnerships and monitoring of performances.’ The parade was held at the Tactical Services Unit Square, Eve Leary, for ranks who have successfully completed seven recruit courses, including five out of the Felix Austin Police College, Georgetown.
Persaud told the police officers that they have joined the Guyana Police Force at a very important time, where society is friendlier to the police. “This,” he said, “is not something that came by chance and we have to work to develop and maintain it.”
