Georgetown: Longstanding Crime Chief and Deputy Commissioner Seelall Persaud will now be acting Commissioner of Police as retired Police Commissioner Leroy Brumell on Monday officially handed over duties.
Ever since the announcement of Brumell’s retirement, Persaud, 50, who holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Public Management and a Post-Graduate Diploma in International Studies from the University of Guyana (UG), has been listed as the most suitable successor.
His post as Crime Chief has been taken up by his deputy, Winston Cosbert, who also moved to his new location, Police Headquarters on Monday morning. Now that Persaud has been appointed the acting Police Commissioner, a substantive appointment can only be done upon the reconstitution of the Police Service Commission and the Public Service Commission.
