His Majesty's Government of Gibraltar is dismayed and disappointed to learn of a violent assault against an officer of the Royal Gibraltar Police.
The Chief Minister, who learned of the incident whilst in New York ahead of his address to the United Nations Fourth Committee, has written to the Commissioner of Police to enquire as to the wellbeing of the police officer.
The Chief Minister, the Hon Fabian Picardo KC, said: "Violence of any nature has no place in Gibraltar. It is abhorrent that a police officer acting to protect our community was the victim of a violent attack. Every law abiding member of our community will join me in wishing them a quick recovery."
