Georgetown: The outcome of the investigation into the rape allegation involving Police Commissioner, Henry Greene, could be revealed in a matter of days. This could see a determination being made whether or not the Top Cop will have to face the court to answer the alleged rape charges.
Greene’s fate presently lies with the Director of Public Prosecutions who is currently in possession of statements and reports presented to her by a team of local and foreign investigators.
The investigations stem from allegations made by a 34-year-old woman who claimed that the Commissioner raped her in a city hotel back in November last year.
Greene has denied the rape allegations, telling investigators that the sexual encounter with the woman was by mutual consent.
But according to one investigator who asked not to be named, the question of consent is not one for the DPP to decide on.
“That is for the court. The DPP has to decide whether there is enough evidence to support the allegations of rape,” the investigator said.
Weighing heavily on the matter will be the woman’s initial statement, which she had given to local investigators at the Brickdam Police Station.
