When asked if he thinks that James should be retained as the Commissioner of Police when a new government is sworn in, Ali responded, that his party is not in a “witch-hunting” exercise.
“We are not in a witch hunting exercise….we are going to act professionally. The Commissioner has assured us that he and his team will continue to act professionally.
