The Customs Anti-Narcotic Unit (CANU) has denied an accusation that its ranks were not wearing CANU insignia during an operation in Dazzell Housing Scheme on March 29.
According to attorney Eusi Anderson his client Rawle Farrell was forced to flee for his life after members of the Unit discharged no less than five shots in his direction when they visited his home at about 3 pm on the day in question. The men he alleged bore no identifying marks and did not identify themselves to the occupants of the Dazzell Housing Scheme property.
“Upon seeing a number of unidentified armed men exiting an unmarked vehicle with guns exposed and pointing…Farrell fled for his life. Ranks of CANU started firing shots at …Farrell who was unarmed and fleeing the scene for his life. No less than five shots were fired at him,” the statement from Anderson claimed.
