Former national footballer and former assistant coach of the Antigua and Barbuda senior men's football team, Derrick "Pretty Boy" Edwards, has made an emotional and passionate appeal to the newly appointed General Secretary for a copy of the official report into an incident that led to his arrest in Jamaica in March 2018.
According to Antigua Observer, Edwards directed his plea to the newly installed General Secretary, seeking access to documentation surrounding the circumstances of his arrest, which has apparently remained unresolved from his perspective for several years.
Edwards, widely known by his nickname "Pretty Boy," served as both a national footballer and later as an assistant coach of the senior men's team before the 2018 incident in Jamaica. The arrest, which took place more than seven years ago, appears to have had a lasting impact on the former football figure, prompting his renewed and impassioned call for transparency and access to the relevant report.
The appeal to the new General Secretary signals that Edwards believes the incoming leadership may offer a fresh opportunity to address matters he has long sought answers to. No details regarding the nature of the 2018 incident were provided.
