The police officers in question who are reportedly members of the Quick Response Team (QRT) allegedly acted without permission from their superiors when they showed up at the Telecommunications Authority Suriname (TAS) last Tuesday. They evidently used forced without permission and without the knowledge of their superiors. The police officers claimed that they were only following orders from a superior but nobody knows if they are telling the truth and which superior allegedly gave the order to go to the TAS. Justice and Safety Minister Harish Monorath expressed disbelief over the incident and has given the order for an investigation to be launched. “It is unacceptable,” said Minister Monorath who added that the officers had not informed their designated superior that they were going to the main office of the TAS to intervene in a dispute between the director and the board of directors. According to the minister, both parties had called the police. The first police officers that arrived on the scene eventually left but later that afternoon the QRT officers returned to the scene even though their superior was not aware of their return. Minister Monorath is puzzled by the unsanctioned actions of the police officers. He warned that this case would be investigated thoroughly and that the officers in question would face the music if it becomes clear that they had gone rogue.
