The Po­lice Com­plaints Au­thor­i­ty (PCA) says it has found no ev­i­dence of mis­con­duct on the part of any po­lice of­fi­cer dur­ing the raid of sev­er­al homes in Gulf View on May 3rd.

It has al­so be­gun an in­ves­ti­ga­tion in­to the search of the home of for­mer at­tor­ney gen­er­al Anand Ram­lo­gan's house­keep­er.

The PCA said in a state­ment on Thurs­day that "a pre­lim­i­nary in­ves­ti­ga­tion pur­suant to Sec­tion 30 of the PCA Act Chap­ter 15:05, has been com­plet­ed and there have been no find­ings of mis­con­duct on the part of any po­lice of­fi­cer".

It said that the in­for­ma­tion gath­ered dur­ing this pre­lim­i­nary in­ves­ti­ga­tion is strict­ly con­fi­den­tial.

With re­gard to the search on the premis­es of Goomatie and Troy Rag­bir at Sir La­m­ont Av­enue, Phillip­ine on May 7th, the PCA said that an in­ves­ti­ga­tion has been ini­ti­at­ed pur­suant to Sec­tion 26 of the PCA Act Chap­ter 15:05, in­to the con­duct of po­lice of­fi­cers dur­ing an al­leged ex­er­cise at the premis­es of Goomatie Rag­bir.

That mat­ter is al­so be­ing probed by Po­lice Com­mis­sion­er Gary Grif­fith.
