Three Policemen Interdicted For Gun Salutes At Alleged Don’s Funeral
On January 18, we reported that three policemen were among nine persons being investigated by the Trelawny police, for their possible roll in gun salutes that reportedly took place during the funeral of 31 year old alleged gang leader, Patrick ‘Kingman’ McDonald.
The police high command has now officially interdicted the three policemen (two constables and a corporal). However, their names have not been released, as no charges have been laid against them. The three are stationed at the 100 Man Police Station in Portmore, St. Catherine, and the Protective Services Branch, respectively.
A Jamaica Constabulary Force press release that was issued yesterday, stated that a file regarding the investigation was being prepared for submission to the Director of Public Prosecutions, for advice on possible criminal action being brought against the policemen.
While they are on interdiction, the lawmen will receive three quarters of their monthly salaries, pending the outcome of the case.
