The Guyana Police Force (GPF) on Monday addressed recent media claims concerning the alleged transfer of Deputy Superintendent Phiona Harris and matters involving Ms. Adonika Aulder, the wife of Assistant Police Commissioner Mr. Calvin Brutus, who recently left the country.
In a statement issued to clarify the situation, the GPF confirmed that it fully respects the court’s decision that permitted Ms. Aulder to travel abroad for medical reasons.
The police force assured the public that all necessary procedures were followed to facilitate her departure, which involved coordination between Superintendent Stephen Telford, Deputy Chief Immigration Officer, and Deputy Superintendent Harris.
The GPF also stressed that there was no truth to the claims that Deputy Superintendent Harris had been transferred. The force confirmed that no transfer orders were issued by the Deputy Chief Immigration Officer or the Executive Leadership Team (ELT) of the GPF.
The force categorically rejected rumours suggesting that Harris had acted outside her authority or violated any protocols in her handling of the matter.
In response to further allegations circulating in the media, the GPF firmly refuted claims that officers were being threatened with demotion, transfer, or criminal charges over the situation. The force reiterated its commitment to professionalism, fairness, and adherence to established procedures.
The GPF concluded by urging both the media and the public to exercise caution when disseminating unverified information and reiterated its ongoing commitment to transparency, integrity, and the protection of its officers.
