英国公民安德鲁·弗雷德里克于1月4日在加勒比岛国格林纳达被发现死亡 1。第一次验尸报告显示，弗雷德里克遭受"钝器创伤"和刑讯逼供，包括拔指甲 1，病理医生鉴定其死因为谋杀 1。然而格林纳达警方随后以"无事实基础"关闭了此案 1，与验尸结论相悖。
这起案件的调查进展因英国当局与格林纳达政府间的外交延误而受阻 1。尸体在格林纳达当局控制下被保管了六周 1，随后于8月被遣返英国 1。第二次验尸发现颈部及所有器官——包括大脑、心脏和肺——已被移除 1。英国高等专员已向格林纳达最高层提出此案，格方虽口头同意合作，但数周后仍未对正式请求签署批准 1。近10个月来，这一延误引发了弗雷德里克家属及慈善机构对英国政府采取行动的呼声 1。前苏格兰场杀人案指挥官大卫·约翰斯顿称格林纳达的做法"令人难以置信" 1。
Andrew Frederick, a British citizen, was found dead in the Caribbean island nation of Grenada on January 4 1. A pathologist's initial autopsy determined he died from blunt force trauma and torture, including fingernail removal, and ruled the death a murder 1. However, Grenadian police closed the case citing "no factual basis," contradicting the autopsy findings 1.
Nearly ten months later, diplomatic delays between British and Grenadian authorities have stalled the investigation. When Frederick's body was returned to the UK in August for a second autopsy, pathologists discovered that his neck and all internal organs—including his brain, heart, and lungs—had been removed 1. The body had remained under the control of Grenadian authorities for six weeks before being sent back 1. The British High Commissioner has raised the case with Grenada's highest levels, and while Grenadian officials verbally agreed to cooperate, formal approval of subsequent requests has not been granted weeks later 1.
Family members and advocacy groups are now calling on the UK government to intervene. David Johnston, a former Scotland Yard murder investigation commander, characterized Grenada's handling of the case as "incredible" 1.
