Schoolboy alleges sexual abuse by policeman

Apr 22, 2012 News

 

 

A police Lance Corporal is now under close arrest following allegations from a 13-year old boy that he was sodomised twice within two days.
The schoolboy was found yesterday in the Cop’s East Coast Demerara house by ranks attached to the Cove and John Police Station after they received word that the boy had been held there for two days.
The policeman has denied the allegation which is being vigorously investigated.
This new revelation of sexual abuse plunges the police force further into crisis, following the much publicised rape scandal that forced Henry Greene out of the office of Commissioner of Police.
Kaieteur News understands that the schoolboy, who attends a secondary school on the East Coast of Demerara, had previously been arrested for wandering in the Vigilance district when the policeman was stationed there.
The two of them struck up a relationship after the lad was placed before the court and sent away on $10,000 bail.
According to a source, since then the Cop reportedly would contact the teenager via telephone.
On Thursday last the teen got into minor trouble at his school and fearing that he would be scolded by his grandmother with whom he lives, sought refuge at the home of the policeman.
The policeman who lives alone willingly obliged.
The teenager told police that his first sexual encounter with the policeman occurred at 01:00 hour on Friday and this was allegedly repeated yesterday around 05:00 hours.
Police sources said that they received word that the teenager was locked in the house and hurried there to rescue him.
The boy was found there in his school uniform.
The policeman was contacted and told of the allegation while the youth was taken to the Mahaicony Cottage Hospital for a medical examination.
