The father of Jaheim Peters, the teen who was allegedly tortured while in custody at the Vigilance Police station, says more witnesses are coming forward to support his son’s account of the incident, placing two ranks of the station as the ones responsible for the act.
“It got more details that they light he pun he pants and then them out the fire and then them light he again. The whole truth coming out. Other people that went in there wah get bail call pun phone and tell me……I get more information,” Esse Peters told Stabroek News during a telephone interview yesterday.
He said while the witnesses are fearful of police harassment, they have contacted him with information about the incident involving his son and asked that their identities be withheld.
