MONTRÉAL - Quebec Domestic Security Minister Ian Lafrenière has appointed an independent observer to oversee the investigations into racism allegations involving Montreal police officers, over a week after the force dismantled a patrol unit in Montréal-Nord and suspended two officers.
Lafrenière announced Saturday that lawyer Anne-Marie Boisvert will monitor both the criminal and disciplinary investigations being conducted by the Montreal police service and provide him with a report containing her findings and recommendations.
