ASSISTANT Commissioner of Police Clayton Fernander did not report to the Ministry of Health yesterday, but is actively handling its security matters since being briefed by the minister of health, according to his attorney. Attorney Wayne Munroe told The Tribune that the physical presence of ACP Fernander is not needed at the Ministry of Health and that the senior officer is addressing security concerns relating to the ministry. “He is not at the Ministry of Health; he does not have any police resources at the Ministry of Health. When he said he will carry out his duties, people must have thought that he will follow instructions blindly, but that’s not the case,” said Mr Munroe, QC. After returning from forced vacation leave last week, ACP Fernander was given a letter informing him to report for a “special assignment” to the Ministry of Health which officially began yesterday. However, in accordance with his position, Mr Munroe said that ACP Fernander compiled all the security matters of the Ministry of Health that need attention and will give instructions to be carried out.
