However Kaieteur News learnt that an appeal has been filed challenging the Magistrate’s decision to dismiss the matter.Although Webster was charged with using an uncertified vehicle, the man produced a Certificate of Fitness No 2498692, which was still in force at the time.The policeman is also contending that although his vehicle is tinted, there are other police officers whose vehicles are even more tinted.Relatives are calling for the matter to be investigated since they sensed that Webster is being victimized by a senior Police Officer which goes back some time when they were both stationed in A Division.Concerning the issue with the tint on the vehicle, Webster stated that he doesn’t have a problem removing the tint, but all the other vehicles will have to remove their tints. He stated that there are a number of police officers- both senior and junior who have dark tinted vehicles.
