A MOTHER WANTS to know if there is more than one law covering police brutality.

Cheryl Cadogan has questioned why no indictments have been laid in her son’s claim after she read in the WEEKEND NATION that two police officers had been charged with the alleged beating of 20-year-old Nazim Blackett last year.

Cadogan wants further clarification from the Director of Public Prosecutions and the Commissioner of Police as to why officers were not charged in connection with the brutal beating of her son, Andrew Pollard, in 2014, at the same District “A” Police station.

The angry woman told the SUNDAY SUN that the circumstances were too similar to have two different outcomes as she, like Blackett’s mother, Tracey, had publicly complained about her son’s “life-threatening injuries”. (MB)
