  • Cop In Bribery Case Seeks Counselling

    Anastasia Cunningham, News Coordinator

    Sergeant Jubert Llewellyn and his family are now reportedly undergoing psychological counselling for the trauma being faced as a result of the series of events being played out in the alleged bribery case involving Senior Superintendent of Police James Forbes, Member of Parliament Daryl Vaz and businessman Bruce Bicknell.

    Yesterday, Sergeant Raymond Wilson, chairman of the Police Federation, told The Gleaner that head of the Jamaica Constabulary Force chaplain unit, Bishop Gary Welsh, was asked to intervene and provide counselling for Llewellyn and his family.

    "We have seen that the manner in which the matter has been aired, over the last 48 hours especially, has brought much anxiety and had begun to impact psychologically on Sergeant Llewellyn and his family and the entire cohort of the rank-and-file members," Wilson said.

    Federation's support

    Wilson declined to comment on whether Llewellyn and his family were in fear for their lives, choosing to outline the support the federation would be offering the officer who has been a member of the force for 25 years.

    "Sergeant Llewellyn was carrying out his lawful duty when the matter that is at the centre of the discussions took place. The federation supports every single member whenever they go out there in the field to do their job in a professional and respectful manner that is consistent with force policies and the laws of Jamaica," said Wilson.

    Wilson added that the federation had in place the necessary support structure, legal and otherwise, if it becomes necessary.

    On advice from the federation not to speak to the media, Llewellyn would only say: "I'm more than happy and willing to abide by the directives of my representatives under the circumstances."

    Neither Llewellyn nor any member of the federation was at court on Wednesday because he was not charged with any offence. He will attend court, along with his federation representative, only if requested.

            And you can't see the irony in this Brick?.

            You can't see that in a civilized society(yes civilized), it would have been Vast, Bicknell etc who would be seeking psych counselling in prep for a possible extended jail term in order to reduce the risk of hurting themselves. In Ja it's the opposite. That doesn't strike you as odd?
