SMN News reported that the investigators bungled the investigation when they deported some Jamaicans who led them to the weapon that killed Eric Sam during a robbery on December 30th 2009. Mos said police found the weapon that was used in the killing but he said he is not able to divulge more information the case since it is still open and is being investigated. He said the persons who were deported gave police statements which helped the investigation and their statements can still be used as the investigation progresses.
Mos said the report creates the impression that the RST and the local detectives are at odds but that he said is not the case. According to well placed sources, SMN News learnt that the informants and possible eye witnesses into the brutal murder which was caught on camera was picked up and turned over to immigration prior to the case being solved.
