CANU further said that while officers were conducting their operation at the premises, they were approached by the suspect’s mother who was questioned and assured ranks that she would bring her son into CANU headquarters to be questioned.
Sandiford noted that an arrest warrant had been issued for Farrell on March 30 and that he had not turned himself in until Monday.
The warrant which was reported by Stabroek News identified Farrell, 32, as a resident of Sixth Street, Paradise Housing Scheme.
Though no specific offence was mentioned the wanted bulletin published via CANU’s social media pages encouraged anyone knowing the whereabouts of Farrell to contact CANU via 227-3507 or 226-0431.
This did not happen instead on Easter Monday the suspect with his mother, other relatives and his Attorney presented themselves to the main gate of CANU’s Headquarters where he turned himself in.
He was arrested and further investigated.
According to Anderson both Farrell and his mother are prepared to undergo public polygraph tests to establish the veracity of their statements.
His mother is also prepared to testify that her son’s property including his phones were in the possession of the ranks and therefore there was “no mechanism for CANU to contact Farrell between the date of the search and the wanted bulletin being issued.”
Farrell’s parent has claimed that the ranks initially denied being in possession of her son’s phones and did not reveal that they had seized the item until a neighbour called the number and it began ringing.
At this point the CANIU ranks who had still not shown any form of ID requested that she “sign for the items that were being seized from the premises.”
