The Commissioner of Police is condemning a number of offensive and false messages about members of the Royal Turks and Caicos Islands Police Force.
The messages, circulated on WhatsApp and other social media forums, are believed to have originated from ‘fake’ accounts and are targeting Officers within the Force. The content of the messages has no basis in truth and are clearly malicious in their motivation.
Commissioner Botting said: “I condemn in the strongest possible terms the abuse of hard-working police officers by persons using fake accounts. The abuse makes a number of allegations that have no basis in truth. The use of fake accounts says much about the people who spread such hatred and offense; they are cowardly and offensive.”
