Commissioner of Police (ag) Leroy Brumell has given his ranks up to tomorrow (Monday) to turn in their badges if they cannot control the urge to continue their corrupt practices.
Speaking at the conclusion of the force’s 173rd anniversary route march through the city yesterday, the acting top cop said that he was irked by a recent item in the press which called for the fight against corruption to start with the Guyana Police Force, which was described as the most corrupt organization in the country.
Brumell said that he welcomes criticisms of the force, which according to him, will always be directed at the Guyana Police Force, especially if attitudes within the organization do not change.
He referred to the way some ranks speak to members of the public, even in the presence of their supervisors.
“We have upgraded buildings and our attitudes must be upgraded to match those buildings,†Brumell declared.
