ASSISTANT Superintendent of Police, Seecharran Singh, was, on Monday, June 10, 2019, committed to stand trial at the High Court for the rape of a 13-year-old girl.
Singh, 31, of Plantation Providence, East Bank Demerara, was on trial before Acting Chief Magistrate Sherdel Isaacs-Marcus where the trial was done in-camera, at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Court.

The cop is charged for allegedly engaging in sexual activity with the under-aged child, during the month of June, 2018, at his home. He is currently out on $250,000 bail.
The Guyana Chronicle had earlier reported that the teen was left in the care of Singh, during the month of June 2018.

It is alleged that the police officer made advances to the young girl, while her mother was out with a friend, and raped her.

Upon the return of the child’s mother and the friend, the incident of what took place between the teen and the police officer was recounted to one of the female adults and the police was informed.

The Magistrate on Monday afternoon ruled that a sufficient case was made out against Singh for him to stand trial at the High Court. He will remain out on bail. As a condition for his bail, the magistrate ordered Singh to keep 50 feet away from the victim.
