Justice Brassington Reynolds was yesterday forced to adjourn the Bharrat Jagdeo libel suit after his lawyer and the chief witness failed to turn up. He later awarded $20, 000 costs to two defence lawyers in the case who had turned up.
When the case was last heard, yesterday’s date was set aside for the continuation of the matter. Jagdeo’s lead attorney Anil Nandlall was absent yesterday but defence counsel Christopher Ram and Nigel Hughes were present.
