“This is a serious matter and should not be taken lightly. We have requested and remain assured that Belizean authorities will undertake a comprehensive investigation into this matter. We appeal to the general public to safeguard the investigative process by allowing the time necessary and refer to the police statements for updates as their investigation process unfolds,” the association said.
