A Special Forces soldier, a police officer and a former security head are expected to be interviewed by officers of the Anti-Corruption and Investigations Bureau (ACIB) into the shooting of Dillian Johnson who was shot outside his home on December 3rd, 2017.
Following the shooting, Johnson fled the country to the United Kingdom on December 29th that year claiming he was the victim of a targeted hit.
Allegations surfaced in 2017 that Chief Justice Ivor Archie tried to influence Supreme Court justices to change their personal state-provided security in favour of a private security company that employs his “close friend” Dillian Johnson, a convicted felon, as aconsultant.
Commissioner of Police Gary Griffith who spoke to Guardian Media Limited during the weekend confirmed that he had met with the head of ACIB William Nurse last week after new evidence had emerged in Johnson's shooting.
Griffith said a sworn statutory declaration signed by a woman (named withheld), had been handed over to the ACIB.
The Commissioner said that the investigators were "intensively pursuing the investigation" and he could not make any further comment.
Guardian Media Limited had obtained a copy of the declaration several weeks ago that was witnessed by Commissioner of Affidavits Stephen Sohon on December 7th last year.
The woman in the statement claimed that she could have been responsible for Johnson's death after hearing that he was shot a few days after she had shown a special forces officer where Johnson resided in Gasparillo.
The woman also called the name of other persons who were allegedly in the know about Johnson's shooting in her six-page declaration.
The woman who has since spoken to Guardian Media Limited has expressed fear for her life, claiming that certain law enforcement personnel are trying to harm her.
The Commissioner of Police said he was aware of the woman's claims and they were being looked into.
