14yr Old Severely Burnt By Police
The 14 year-old, whose surname is Thomas, was severely burnt around the genital area, by Police officers while being interrogated about alleged knowledge of the murder of ruling People’s Progressive Party (PPP) Region 3 official, Ramnauth Bisram. “What is even more abhorrent and criminal, is that the depraved Police officers held the teen with third degree burns in prison for four days, during which period they refused him access to a medical doctor, his parents and an Attorney. He was only taken to the West Demerara regional Hospital Saturday, after the matter was reported in the press and the Guyana Bar Association and a group of prominent Lawyers issued statements of condemnation,” CGID said. It has been revealed that the investigating officers doused the lad’s genitals with a flammable liquid and lit him afire, after an unsuccessful interrogation attempt about Bisram’s murder. A press photographer secretly gained access into the prison and photograph the tortured teenager. |
