Although the leaking of the final report of the Commission of Inquiry (CoI) into the police’s handling of the alleged plot to assassinate him is a concern, President David Granger has said that ensuring there is a police force that can be trusted and is efficient in addressing crime is more important.
Speaking to reporters at State House shortly after the accreditation of Austria’s Non-Resident Ambassador to Guyana on Wednesday, Granger indicated that no investigation will be done to determine who leaked the document.
“Naturally, as a head of government, I am concerned with any unauthorised leaks and I had hoped that the members of the Cabinet would have had the opportunity to look at it critically before it came up for public discussion. So I am concerned. I don’t know who is responsible for that leak but the important thing is that we have been able to discern or detect some flaws in police administration,” he said.
