Cops apologise to DIGICEL

THE Police High Command had issued an apology to telecommunications company Digicel for the level of force used in a raid by the tax enforcers on the company's New Kingston office on May 4.
In a media release the police said the assistance provided to the tax enforcers was as a result of a standing order which has been agreed to.
"The Police High Command wishes to apologise to the Management of Digicel and the members of staff for any undue anxiety and fear caused by the presence of armed Police personnel on the day in question. We also wish to assure the public in general and business operators in particular, that in the future when we assist enforcement agencies, we will do so in a manner that reflects understanding and does not cause undue fear and anxiety," the release stated.
The police said they were not provided with details, except for the date, time and location of the briefings which was held shortly before the operation are launched.
"Based on what happened on May 4, the Police High Command conducted an investigation into the matter. As a result of the findings of the investigation, we concluded that the level of force deployed was out of proportion with what was required for such operation.
Against this background, the Deputy Commissioner of Police in charge of operations has been tasked to have immediate consultation with all agencies that the Police provide support for from time to time, to review the existing standing orders," the release said.
The police said they will now demand more information from Government agencies before they deploy a team.
The Organised Crime Investigation Division (OCID) will now be the unit tasked to assist these agencies.
