-cites political directives, breach of natural justice
Amid the disclosure that charges have been recommended in a SOCU probe of him, Assistant Police Commissioner Calvin Brutus yesterday moved to the court against the Attorney General, the Top Cop and others, arguing that he was being victimized in the ongoing investigation and being denied services including a restriction on his accounts.
An application lodged for Brutus also alleges a role for Cabinet in his being sent on leave and recounted an appearance in court where he was threatened with a wanted bulletin if he did not show up at the Special Organised Crime Unit (SOCU) which is spearheading the probe. The affidavit also accused senior government officials of interference in the matter in what will likely create further turmoil in the Guyana Police Force (GPF).
