Tests ‘a must’

Lie-detector tests are going to be used to weed bad cops out of the Royal Barbados Police Force.

Acting Deputy Commissioner of Police Oral Williams indicated this yesterday, while reporting that local businesses were turning to the lie-detector tests in their job recruitment drive.

Williams made the comments as he addressed a graduation ceremony yesterday at the Regional Police Training Centre in Christ Church for 24 Caribbean police officers – including five Barbadians – who took part in a ten-week polygraph course.

“I am happy to have in the force a cadre of trained persons who will assist in weeding out some of these undesirables who seek entry to the Force, who are serving in the Force and by their actions seek to sully the good name of the institution and to assist in the investigation of crime in this island,” he said.
