In the widely-circulated video on social media, the Officer claimed the threat was connected to an ongoing criminal matter, alleging that certain individuals wanted him and other Officers involved in the investigation to withdraw from or abandon the case.

In a Media Release today (Sunday 31st May, 2026), Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) - Operations, Suzette Martin, said the TTPS advises that an “investigation has been initiated into this matter, as all reports of threats, intimidation, or attempts to interfere with the administration of justice are treated with the utmost seriousness and urgency.”

According to DCP Martin, “A threat directed at a Police Officer who is lawfully carrying out his or her duties is not merely a threat against an individual Officer. Such actions may constitute an attack on the administration of justice, the rule of law, and the institutions responsible for maintaining public safety and order. Accordingly, every report of this nature is subject to careful assessment and thorough investigation.”

She added, “The TTPS will take all reasonable and necessary measures to safeguard the affected Officer, his family, and the integrity of the law enforcement and judicial processes. The TTPS remains steadfast in its commitment to ensuring that Officers can perform their lawful duties free from intimidation, coercion, or fear, and that any person found responsible for criminal acts of this nature will be dealt with in accordance with the law.”

The Media Release concluded by saying, “The public can be assured that this matter is receiving the attention it warrants, and updates will be provided as the investigation progresses and circumstances permit. The TTPS remains committed to transparency and will keep the public informed of the outcome of the investigation.”
