Officials mum on reports that senior cop under investigation

Officials with responsibility for national security have declined to confirm reports that a senior officer within the Royal Virgin Islands Police Force (RVIPF) is under investigation.

BVI News received information suggesting that a high-ranking police officer is currently the subject of an internal investigation. In response, our news centre contacted Commissioner of Police Mark Collins, who stated he could not comment on the matter.

Further inquiries were made with the RVIPF’s Information Unit, which redirected us to the Office of the Governor, as the Governor holds portfolio responsibility for the RVIPF. However, the Governor’s Office also declined to comment on RVIPF matters and directed our news centre to the police force.

Although both the Governor’s Office and the RVIPF refused to comment, neither office denied the claims of an ongoing investigation.

This silence raises further questions about the current circumstances within the RVIPF. The police force is currently preparing to enter a transition phase as Commissioner Collin’s tenure as top cop draws near to an end.

      Why do we always get it wrong?

    • #Phew says:

      What smells worse or as bad as a rotten cop is the Caricomers. Rotten Cops and Caricomers is always an item,a given. Never is there one without the other.These BVI was,not too long ago a Tropical haven where there was no use for functioning cops.
      St Barts has very few,if any “settled in “Caricomers nor does any other island in the Caribbean region with “clean” cops.
      The issue is the pigtail none the peas soup
      .

  8. SMOKESCREEN says:

    They are trying to tarnish the reputation of a decorated Police Officer due to his impeccable record and the fact that he is the number one local contender for the job of Commissioner of Police. The same way they handled the Deputy Commissioner process, where one spot was available, which he earned fair and square but was not the expected result making room for 2 deputies. Deja vu. This has nothing to do with a bad cop at all. The current commissioner needs to leave the BVI ASAP.

    This country sliding and going downhill
    They are silent on the subject but want public to come forward when there is a crime
    Example begin with the head

    Hatred and jealousy is stiffing positive movements and forward thinking policies in the country

    Someone just talk about independence

    Can we go independent with leaders like these?

    Is it the UK that is putting us in enslavement now ?

    Who
    Doing is the dishonest stimulus package just came out?
    The Uk we need to
    Stop

  11. @ ANOTHER DIRTY COP AGAIN says:

    HE CANNOT BE DIRTIER THAN YOU , EVERY DAY YOU SPEWING DIRT ON PEOPLE , YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF , BUT THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE WHEN IT COMES TO YOU , TRUMP. AIN’T GOT NOTHING ON YOU

  12. Yeah says:

    C Ge**ge, L**don, co**er, R*n, l**rack need to go

  13. Po We says:

    Caricomers and dirty cops go hand in hand. It is the nature of the demographic.
    There is an absence of crime in Caribbean countries where the head count of Caricomers is nil.
    Caricomers and their brotherhood police men emit the same degree of stench resulting in a polluted once upon a time Nirvana.
    St Barts,the air is a delight to the nostrils, much like these VI
    not too long ago .

      Sooo true
      We do we business with no concern about the result. Full up de place with garrots, import their police to “police” them haha and now we blabbing big shite about corruption. Updeislun police are infamously famous for corruption. This is a given as we all know. Refrain from installing them and their uncivil civilians in your country and playing the losing game of mucking up your country.
