Back in April of this year, an SPU Corporal and two Constables and another officer searched a home in Santa Elena Town. They reportedly found 27 parcels of Cocaine.

They confiscated the drugs and arrested the persons in the home and started taking them to Belmopan.

But, on the way there, they allegedly stopped and released their detainees and continued to Belmopan.

When they got to Belmopan, instead of depositing the drugs they allegedly went and stashed the drugs with the intention of selling them and sharing the proceeds.

A police press release says that the Professional Standards Branch "launched an investigation into the matter which revealed that the information is credible."

But, not credible enough for criminal charges and the three officers have since been placed on disciplinary charges for Neglect of Duty and Act of Prejudice to good order and Discipline. the release adds that "They have since been interdicted from duty pending the outcome of this matter."

In other news of rogue cops, a woman Sergeant and a male constable in Punta Gorda allegedly shook down a bar owner on September first, saying that they would charge him for human trafficking if he didn't hand over three thousand dollars.

Joe Bejerano says the cops shook him down after he was detained at the PG police station on suspicion of human trafficking. The P.G. bar owner told PGTV that he had to borrow money from his family to come up with the three thousand dollars.
