The sergeant who is the main suspect in the incident which allegedly caused the death of Special Lance Corporal Carlos Alleyne, remains on duty.
Twenty-five-year-old Carlos Alleyne, succumbed at the Georgetown Public Hospital on May 4, 2019, after he was allegedly beaten by other ranks while stationed at the Special Constabulary Headquarters, Princes Street, Wortmanville.
At a press conference on Monday, Crime Chief Lyndon Alves stated that the file in relation to the matter was prepared and sent for legal advice, however, it was subsequently returned to the police for several matters to be cleared up.
Alves told the conference that the police are currently in the process of doing such, after which the file will be sent back for further legal advice.
In a previous report, Alleyne’s mother, Jocelyn Ambrose, along with other relatives, had expressed their dissatisfaction with the police and the pace of the investigation. Ambrose had said that she intends to speak with higher ranks within the force to obtain justice for her son.
Previous reports had also indicated that relatives of the Special Lance Corporal only found out about his death three days after. Ambrose had stated that she was told that he was beaten and later locked in a room but was released after begging to seek medical attention.
Relatives later found out that Alleyne went to the GPHC alone, without the company of any of his colleagues.
