SEVEN police officers from the Princes Town Police Station are under investigation in the case in which an 18-year-old suspect is claiming he was set on fire while in police custody.

The Express understands that charges may be laid against officers who were on duty on Christmas Eve when Jamerson John was in custody at the station.

The probe is being led by officers of the Professional Standards Unit of the Police Service.

John, 18, claimed that he was stripped to his underwear, doused with methylated spirits and set alight after he refused to confess to a crime near his Moruga home.

He was discharged from the San Fernando General Hospital’s burn unit last Sunday after being admitted on Christmas Day for injuries to his torso, leg and genital area.

Before the Princes Town court where John made his first appearance on Monday on housebreaking and robbery charges, police prosecutor Krishna Bedassie told the court that before John’s arrest, he had used methylated spirit on a wound to his foot and the flammable substance had fallen on his clothing.

Bedassie said when the teenager was taken into custody at the Princes Town police station, he came into contact with scented candles and his clothes caught afire.

Last week Senior Superintendent of Police Cecil Santana told the Express, “I have appointed an investigator to look into the matters. Reports have been submitted from the police officers concerned,”

The Express understands that seven officers in particular are being investigated.

The Police Complaints Authority has called for a copy of the police investigation file in the matter, including reports on John’s clothing and the scented candles

what do you call those KNOWN gangleaders receiving state contracts?

Fact is the kid was injured while in custody and claims the police did it. Despite what the kid did, we can't have police behaving like that. And despite what the police did, he won't get off if evidence is against him in the crime he's accused of. From the looks of it from the prosecutor, the police will be found wrong, and they should be disciplined if this is the case. He doesn't need to be paid.
I love how the idiots saying well done police and think they were right in what they did are the same people comparing us to bigger countries with less crime where police do not dare pull something like that.
Complaining about police and corruption until they break the rules and do something you like.

The newspaper today says the Forensic Science center in their analysis did not find any evidence of liquid on his clothes. I still feel that youth man lying. And his mother supporting that nonsense.
