James Robertson says dead cop was threatened, calls police to speak out

The West St Thomas MP James Robertson says he has received information that one of the cops murdered in the parish last night had been receiving threats over an incident years ago. 

Robertson did not give details of the alleged incident, but called for the police High Command to release all the information they have and to seek help. 

According to him, other police personnel in the parish have also been receiving threats. 

Robertson who is a Jamaica Labour Party MP member says he will meet with the High Command today to provide the information he has received. 

Contacted last night, Deputy Superintendent of Police in charge of St Thomas, Berrisford Williams, said the investigations were at an early stage and he could not provide much details.
