“Nobody is afraid of anybody!” This was the response of Divisional Commander George Vyphuis in response to a query about the police investigation into what appears to be yet another case of abuse by Information Liaison to President Bharrat Jagdeo, Kwame McCoy. McCoy is once again in the hot seat following his alleged verbal abuse of the police at the Ruimveldt Police Station on Saturday night. Reports reaching this newspaper stated that McCoy, using expletives, verbally abused officers at the station after they had detained a man believed to be one of McCoy’s close associates. It all started when the man was arrested by members of a Community Policing Patrol unit who were accompanied by a police rank. The man subsequently escaped from the patrol vehicle but was recaptured and taken to the station. After exchanging words with the police, McCoy stormed out of the station with some accomplices who had accompanied him. Commander Vyphuis confirmed that the matter was brought to his attention and statements are currently being taken. “We are investigating it,” the Commander told this newspaper. Saturday night’s incident is the latest in a series of scandalous events involving the Office of the President staffer. A few months ago McCoy was fingered in a taped telephone conversation in which he purportedly solicited sex from an under-aged boy by the name of Julius. Following that fiasco, there were calls for his removal from the Rights of the Child Commission. A few weeks later he allegedly abused the police at the East Ruimveldt Outpost following reports that he had threatened to run over a man with his car. McCoy has escaped prosecution in all of the matters but according to a senior police official, the force’s administration will not tolerate this type of behaviour and would seek to prosecute McCoy once the investigations prove that he is culpable. |
