Four cops back in court on corruption charge

Oct 13, 2015 News

The four policemen who are on corruption charges returned to court yesterday.
The men, Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Terrence Browne, Corporal Shawn McPhoy, of 174 Laing Avenue, West Ruimveldt; Constable Ray Drepaul Saul, of Eversham, Corentyne and Constable Trevon McKenzie, of Princeton, Corentyne, are all on bail.
They appeared on Monday before Magistrate Charlyne Artiga in the Whim Magistrate’s court.
They had made their first court appearance in the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court where Brown was granted bail in the sum of $250,000.   He was ordered to lodge his passport. The allegation against Browne, of Lot 273 Sisters Village, West Demerara, is that between September 10 and September 11 at Salton Village, Corentyne, Berbice, he obtained a sum of cash from the other police officers as an inducement to forego charges against Rennison Park.
His colleagues, McPhoy, Drepaul Saul and McKenzie, were charged with corruptly obtaining $6M from Rennison Park as consideration to drop charges against him for trafficking in narcotics.
They were remanded but were subsequently granted bail in the sum of $300,000 each in the High Court.
The ranks had reportedly stopped a vehicle in which Park was said to be transporting some drugs to the eastern border. Mc Phoy allegedly obtained the money from Park.
The prosecution had contended that Browne had obtained $500,000 from the ranks after they had received the bribe from Park.
The court was also informed that two other police officers received a bribe of $500,000 but they returned the money.
Brown is being represented by Attorney-at-Law Chandra Sohan, while McPhoy and McKenzie are being represented by Attorney-at-Law Leslie Sobers, while Drepaul Saul is being represented by Attorney at Law Murselene Bacchus.
They are scheduled to return to court on October 26…
