ROSEAU, Dominica (CMC):

Two police officers, charged with murder, have been remanded in a case the Police Welfare Association (PWA) has described as a sad day for law enforcement.

The charges arise from an incident two Sundays ago where 30-year-old Stan Bruney of the Carib Territory was shot dead by police, prompting Carib Chief Charles Williams to call for stricter gun control laws in the Police Force.

Charged are Constable Carlton Williams and Special Constable Dethros Darrous.
