Hot Valencia cops promised relief

Sources revealed that a senior officer contacted his colleagues in the Eastern Division and assured that attempts are now being made to relocate officers as an option or to speed up the refurbishment work.

The close to 60 officers have been complaining about the excessive heat and dust blowing in their faces.

They have also complained about the lack of washroom facilities and proper place for them to have meals.

The Police Service Social and Welfare Association yesterday urged Deputy Commissioner of Police Deodath Dulalchan who is in charge of all police stations to remedy the situation or possibly face action by the officers.

Minister of National Security Edmund Dillon has also been asked to intervene.
