A Guyanese lawyer living in Barbados has expressed concern over claims by several of nationals of Guyana that there are being beaten to make confessions while in the custody of the police.
According to vice president of the Guyanese Association of Barbados, Samuel Legay
Vice-president of the Guyanese Association of Barbados, Samuel Legay, an attorney at law, there was a growing number of Guyanese making allegations of being beaten by police.
“It is not only an issue for Barbadians but non-nationals as well. These allegations remain an issue and I agree with the former president of the Barbados Bar Association that we need video cameras implemented so that when a person is brought to the police custody, one can see what has transpired up until the time the person is charged or released", Legay told Trakker News.
