Assistant Commissioner, Simon McBean has been instructed to leave Region Three and move over to the city (Division 4 ‘A’). Senior Superintendent, Errol Watts, has been given the green-light to take over as Commander of Region Three.The new government led by President Irfaan Ali has been “shaking up” the police force since it took office days ago.
Former Commander of ‘A’ Division, Edgar Thomas, was tasked with responsibly for security for the Prime Minister and President.
