Independent Commission of Investigations

The Independent Commission of Investigations (Indecom) is Jamaica's independent body responsible for investigating incidents involving members of the security forces. It was established to ensure accountability and public trust in law enforcement. Indecom is currently newsworthy due to its involvement in a high-profile case where a police constable, Andrew Wilson, has been charged with murder. This charge stems from the fatal shooting of Latoya Bulgin during a protest in Granville, St. James. CCTV footage of the incident circulated widely, intensifying public scrutiny. Indecom's investigation led to the charging of Constable Wilson, who was denied bail. The commission's work in this case highlights its critical role in addressing allegations of police misconduct and ensuring justice in Jamaica, particularly in the wake of public outcry over police shootings.
