REPRESENTATIVES FROM Amnesty International will arrive in the island this Saturday to present a report on local police brutality.
"The visit had already been planned in January of this year. They have done a report on police brutality, but it's just coincidental that the meeting is taking place now after the controversial Braeton shootings," Yvonne Sobers, of the Families Against State Terrorism (FAST) human rights advocacy group, said.
"I believe Dr. (Peter) Leth's report will also be presented that day," Miss Sobers said.
In the wake of the controversy over the Braeton shootings by a squad of police officers, Amnesty International commissioned Dr. Peter Leth, a Denmark-based forensic pathologist, to oversee the seven autopsies which were performed last Thursday.
According to another FAST group member, Miguel Lorne, the members of Amnesty International will send a copy to the government on Monday as a matter of protocol. There will also be a meeting on Tuesday at Stephanie Hall to make the report public.
Conroy Robinson, the man who was charged with two counts of murder and shooting with intent in connection with the death of Constable Dwight Gibson, will appear in the Gun Court this Friday.
