Griffith: Politicians are the real monsters! CoP fires back at Persad-Bissessar and Nakhid Commissioner of Police Gary Griffith, in his trademark rhetoric, responded to concerns expressed by Opposition Leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar and Senator David Nakhid about the deaths of Andrew ‘Solo’ Morris and Joel Belcon while in police custody with personal attacks today, via a Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS) release. Griffith suggested that Persad-Bissessar and Nakhid were hypocrites and monsters but did not directly respond to the issues raised by the politicians—other than to point out that an investigation is underway.
