From RCIPS

It is with the deepest regret and heartfelt condolences to his family that the RCIPS announces the passing of Detective Inspector Collins Oremule, a dedicated serving member of the police service.

DI Oremule served as a police officer for 30 years. He spent the majority of his distinguished career within the Criminal Investigations Department (CID), where he specialised in investigating serious and violent crimes across the Cayman Islands. His portfolio included several high-profile murder incidents and complex cases such as bigamy and blackmail.

His expertise extended well beyond our shores, supported by various international certifications and accolades earned throughout his meritorious service.

DI Oremule passed away on the 19th February and will be laid to rest in Nigeria. Following his interment, a Memorial Service will be held in the Cayman Islands in his honour; a public announcement regarding the date and location will be shared in the coming weeks.

“The loss of DI Oremule is deeply felt across the RCIPS. He was an integral member of not only the service but the Cayman Islands community, to which he dedicated his life’s work,” said Commissioner Kurt Walton. “Having worked alongside him for many years in CID, I can attest that his commitment and value were fundamental to the success of the unit over the years. His presence will be dearly missed.”

The RCIPS extends its sincerest condolences to DI Oremule’s family, friends, and colleagues as they navigate this period of grief.
