Senior cop Edmond Cooper dies following ‘prolonged illness’
The Guyana Police Force on Saturday announced the death of Senior Superintendent, Edmond Cooper.
Mr Cooper was hospitalised for a prolonged period since 2021, during which he was also in a coma, Police Headquarters noted in a brief press release.
According to the Police Force, a year before his illness (in 2020), “Mr Cooper — known for his brilliant mind- was admitted to the bar as a lawyer.”
“The Guyana Police Force mourns his death. Several senior officers have already reached out to Mr Cooper’s family to offer condolences and words of comfort at this difficult time,” the press release noted.
Commissioner of Police (ag), Clifton Hicken, Commander of Region Three, Assistant Commissioner Mahendra Siwnarine and other police ranks met with the grieving family at their home earlier Saturday.
