No charges against Trotman on Welshman allegations

Johnny Welshman

The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) has advised the Guyana Police Force not to institute charges against Speaker of the National Assembly Raphael Trotman in connection with child molestation allegations made against him and that the investigation be closed, a reliable source said yesterday.

Stabroek News was unable to make contact with Crime Chief Leslie James and Public Relations Officer at the DPP Chambers, Liz Rahaman would only say that the file on Trotman was returned to the police yesterday.

Last year, Johnny Welshman made allegations that Trotman had sexually molested him as a child.
