Nearly one week after the Police Complaints Authority launched an investigation into the deaths of two suspects in the Andrea Bharatt murder and kidnapping case, Top Cop Gary Griffith says the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service will also undertake a full-scale probe into the matter.

Griffith also assured that he will not be involved in any cover-up if investigations reveal that his officers had a part to play in the deaths of Andrew Morris and Joel Balcon, two suspects in the Andrea Bharatt murder case.

Responding to a newspaper article over the weekend which detailed video footage of SORT officers dealing blows to Morris, Griffith said he had seen no such footage and asked for it to be submitted to aid in the investigation.

Commissioner Griffith has taken note of the many comments being made by persons who do not have the facts.

“People are reaching a final conclusion without knowing what has transpired. We are doing a thorough investigation both by the Police Service and the PCA. For persons to be making false and misleading accusations, it is not helping the situation in any way. It is inappropriate for people to be making accusations and who by their accusations, have already found police officers guilty without getting the facts. These would include the Law Association, an Opposition Senator, and a person who received one percent of the votes in an area he contested in an election. I have heard comments about a prisoner dying after falling from a chair. At no time did any police officer or myself, say that an individual died because he fell from a chair. That never took place,” Griffith said.
