Advice sought on theft of passenger’s phone at airport

A file in relation to last week’s cell phone theft at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport, Timehri, involving a female special constabulary rank has been sent to the Chambers of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) for recommendations.

This is according to Crime Chief Wendell Blanhum who informed Stabroek News on Tuesday that the file was completed and sent to the DPP. He said once legal advice is given, the special constabulary rank is likely to be charged.

Around 7am last Tuesday, the special constabulary rank stationed at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport, Timehri was arrested for stealing a phone belonging to an outbound passenger.
