A re­port was ex­pect­ed to be sent yes­ter­day to the Po­lice Com­plaints Au­thor­i­ty (PCA) fol­low­ing the dis­cov­ery on Wednes­day of mar­i­jua­na, co­caine and sev­er­al rounds of am­mu­ni­tion in the ceil­ing above the male bath­room and in­side a fil­ing cab­i­net in the dor­mi­to­ry at the Fyz­abad Po­lice Sta­tion on Wednes­day.Dur­ing the search ceil­ing tiles were re­moved in the male bath­room and 130 rounds of am­mu­ni­tion of vary­ing cal­i­bres were dis­cov­ered. Al­so dis­cov­ered were 560 grammes of mar­i­jua­na and 36 grammes of co­caine.

The au­thor­i­ty's di­rec­tor Gillian Lucky yes­ter­day said she spoke to act­ing Po­lice Com­mis­sion­er Stephen Williams around 4 pm and was giv­en the as­sur­ance by that the re­port was "on its way" to him.Lucky said once Williams was in pos­ses­sion of the re­port a copy would then be giv­en to her.She said she would not be able to prop­er­ly com­ment on the mat­ter un­less she had read the re­port.

On what was next step Lucky said that would be de­cid­ed when the PCA re­ceived the re­port. In a pre­vi­ous in­ter­view with the T&T Guardian ear­li­er this week Lucky had ex­pressed dis­ap­point­ment over Williams's fail­ure to in­form the PCA about the dis­cov­ery.She said she was con­cerned the PCA on­ly heard of the re­port via me­dia re­ports rather than the prop­er chan­nels as re­quired by law, which was con­tact­ing the au­thor­i­ty.
