The information was made available to the media via a TTPS press release:
A 31-year-old Criminal Investigations Department (CID) detective was ordered to stay 100 metres away from his wife and to refrain from communicating with her via cell phone.
Kellon Emanuele, of Quash Trace, Sangre Grande, who has ten years’ service and was last attached to the Valencia Police Post CID, was given the order as part of his station bail granted by Justice of the Peace, Carl Dattoo. EMMANUEL is expected to appear before a Sangre Grande Magistrate tomorrow, August 18th to answer to the charges.
He was charged by WPC Arreaza-Joseph, of the Gender-Based Violence Unit (GBVU), on August 16th with choking with intent to render unconscious, assault by threats, and misuse of an electronic device.
