Com­mis­sion­er of Po­lice Al­lis­ter Gue­var­ro says the Trinidad and To­ba­go Po­lice Ser­vice re­mains res­olute in de­fend­ing the in­tegri­ty of the badge, as a Mu­nic­i­pal Po­lice of­fi­cer is ex­pect­ed to be charged with mur­der and firearms-re­lat­ed of­fences.

Com­ment­ing on the in­ves­ti­ga­tions, Gue­var­ro said, “The swift and metic­u­lous work of our in­ves­ti­ga­tors re­flects the stan­dard of pro­fes­sion­al­ism the Trinidad and To­ba­go Po­lice Ser­vice de­mands of it­self.

Their de­ci­sive ac­tion brings us clos­er to jus­tice for the fam­i­ly and col­leagues of Act­ing Cor­po­ral of Po­lice Ever­s­ley, and for a na­tion trau­ma­tized by this deeply trou­bling act of be­tray­al. The lure of greed and quick mon­ey can nev­er jus­ti­fy the be­tray­al of pub­lic trust. Whether you serve as Es­tate Po­lice, Tran­sit Po­lice, Mu­nic­i­pal Po­lice, Spe­cial Re­serve Po­lice or Reg­u­lar Po­lice, our oath binds us to a high­er du­ty.

For those who choose cor­rup­tion and crim­i­nal­i­ty, we will leave no stone un­turned to re­move you from among the of­fi­cers who risk their lives dai­ly to pro­tect our cit­i­zens, and place you in­stead among those who en­joy state-pro­vid­ed ac­com­mo­da­tion with re­in­forced bur­glar proof­ing and 24-hour se­cu­ri­ty. The TTPS re­mains res­olute in de­fend­ing the in­tegri­ty of the badge.”

A 28-year-old Mu­nic­i­pal Po­lice of­fi­cer is ex­pect­ed to be charged to­day for the mur­der of No. 8072 Cpl (Ag.) Anus­ka Ever­s­ley, which oc­curred on Sun­day 19th April, 2026, at the San Fer­nan­do Mu­nic­i­pal Po­lice Sta­tion, King’s Wharf, San Fer­nan­do.
