A TOP level investigation is being conducted into the mysterious dis-appearance of a car from the compound of the Couva Police Station recently.

Police sources say that two vehicles were involved in an accident near the Ato Boldon Stadium, Couva, on May 4.

The vehicles were taken to the Couva station while investigations were being carried out.

It was later discovered that one of the vehicles was carrying a false number plate and believed to have been stolen.

However, the car disappeared from the station sometime after.

Police could not say whether the registered owner collected the vehicle.

TnT Mirror was told that a page with details of the Mazda 323 car has gone missing from the station diary.

When contacted, Senior Superintendent Barnett Mayers, who is head of the Central Division, confirmed that there were two accidents near the Ato Boldon Stadium on May 4 -- one involving a four-car smash-up and another between two vehicles.

But the senior cop said he had no information whether any one of those cars was missing from the station or pages torn from the diary.

He, however, promised to investigate the matter further.

Senior officers at the Couva station have been tight-lipped over the matter.

Meanwhile, officers from the Anti-Corruption Bureau are continuing investigations into the theft of another car from the Cunupia Police Sation a few months ago, which was seized by two police officers.

According to a report, two police officers (a corporal and a constable), were on patrol along Munroe Road, Cunupia in a police vehicle when they received a report on their wireless set about a car stolen from the Marabella area.

The two officers, who were on inquiries, spotted the vehicle along Munroe Road, Cunupia.

The officers gave chase and on reaching near Low Cost Supermarket on Munroe Road, the car ran off the road into a ditch.

The carjackers abandoned the vehicle and made their escape.

According to investigators, one of the officers summoned a wrecker from the area to remove the vehicle.

The car was taken to the Cunupia station where it was kept.

A few days later, it was reported that the wrecker was called to remove the vehicle to a house in Cunupia.

Reports are that the Almera car, valued $60,000, was later sold to a relative of the wrecker owner for $16,000.

The car was re-sold to a suspected drug-dealer in the “Bamboo” (Valsayn).

But in a twist of fate, during a roadblock, police stopped the vehicle, seized it and arrested the driver.

He explained he had bought the car from a man in Cunupia.

During the investigation, police discovered it was the stolen vehicle that was seized by two police officers.

Pages from the station diary where the entry of seized cars was made have gone missing.

The two police officers were questioned and investigations are still underway.
