A man who earlier this year claimed that he inflitrated the Jamaica Constabulary Force for eight years without detection, has again been charged with impersonating the police.
Oshane Myers was charged last week following an investigation by the St Catherine North Police.
In May this year, Myers gave a radio interview in which he claimed that he spent eight years in the police force, posing as a cop, without detection.
He also said that he promoted himself to different ranks within the JCF without senior commanders being aware.
Myers, who was arrested in 2015, was sentenced to two years in prison.
However, the Police High Command had rejected his claim and now he is back behind bars.
The Spanish Town police report that last month, they received information of an individual posing as a policeman in Linstead, St Catherine.
They set up a dragnet and Myers was arrested on a bus on Old Harbour Road on October 26.
He was searched and an illegal gun reportedly found in his waistband.
The cops also found him in possession of two police issued identification cards and other paraphernalia.
Further investigations revealed that the ID cards were stolen from the vehicle of a Detective Corporal in Islington, St Mary on October 18.
Myers is booked to appear before the St Catherine Parish Court today.
