A rice farmer of Cotton Tree, Berbice has filed a private criminal charge of attempted murder at the New Amsterdam Court against Land Court Judge Kumar Doraisami.
The farmer, Manzoor Ally-Khan, swore before Magistrate Geeta Chandan Persid-Edmond last Friday that on October 31 last at the Annex Land Court entrance Justice Doraisami drove his motorcar into his path and attempted to kill him. Ally-Khan is scheduled to return to court next Friday when the charges would be read to Justice Doraisami.




will be interesting to see how far this case goes and what happens to the Judge in the meantime
The judge and Mr Ally-Khan and any issue before the ‘attempted morder’?. Stabroek News, give us more information please on this case.
THESE MEDIA SOMETIMES LEAVE U HANGING ON A THREAD WITH WHAT THEY REPORT. HALF TEH STORY IS BEING TOLD… OTHER HALF LEAVES U IN SUSPENSE….. AFTER ALL IS NEWS… SOME TRUE, SOME ADDED, LOTS GET LEFT OUT TO MAKE IT MORE MYSTERIOUS….
Was Mr Ally-Khan hit by the judges car, or had previous grievances, if none it’s a very lame case for the Accuser
no he did’nt had to be struck by the judge’s car, he has to prove that the judge intended to harm him, as such any one who wittnessed this incident would be called to give evidence.
I hope the RICE FRAMER stand his ground, and don’t back down.
it would be interesting to know what led to the judge’s alleged action’s towards his accuser. a charge of attempted murder seems serious, so more details on the issue needs to be brought to the fore so that readers can get a clearer picture as to what significant series of events led to the alleged incident.
…..good move!!……..way to go brother…….you may be small but yu tallawa!!……..you ban!!……you strong!!……….stand up for what is right…….you may be poor but you would not allow anyone to nock down you pride…….stay strong and stand up to the giant…….
Maybe he has to get a sling shot , DRUMUP.
Mr. Ally-Khan had better be damnd sure of what he is doing and the proof that he has to back up his allegation since, if he fails to get a conviction, he could be counter sued by the judge for defamation of character. This will be an interesting one to follow.
Note the difference.Magistrate shoots at Police.no action.Private charge laid against Judge for Attempt murder,by farmer.Whatever the outcome,the farmer has exercised his legal right to bring this case,win or lose.Justice at work.
Mansoor Ally is not poor if memory serve right I think he owns a gas station and that Judge used to be the Magistrate in the West Berbice area for quite some time and he is well known there
I give this man credit for standing up to his rights. It would appear that the Police has not laid charges against this Judge, so this rice farmer did the right thing, fear no one, and had cahrges brought against the Judge. How far will it progress is a different matter. But in the meantime, I salute this brave soul.
