Georgetown : The Guyana Police Force today responded to an article published in the Kaieteur News of today Friday August 03, 2012, under the caption “Linden protestors’ shooters identified – Crime Chief”.
In the article remarks are attributed to Deputy Commissioner “Law Enforcement” Mr. Seelall Persaud, DSM, who is alleged to have told Kaieteur News reporter Michael Jordan that “The policemen who shot and killed three Linden protestors have been identified”.
The Deputy Commissioner vehemently denies that he ever made such a statement to Michael Jordan.
Persaud has indicated that he had spoken to Michael Jordan yesterday and told him that the fragments recovered from the bodies of the three protestors were identified as shotgun pellets and that the police ranks who were on duty at Linden during the demonstration had submitted statements to facilitate the police investigation.
The Deputy Commissioner categorically denies ever telling the Kaieteur News reporter that police ranks had shot and killed the protestors or that anyone else had shot and killed them.
