Nine lawyers including the present Attorney General (AG) and a sitting judge were yesterday elevated to Senior Counsel (SC) status by President David Granger, 20 years after the last batch, with the former AG claiming bias and a lack of transparency in the appointments.

There are three women among the new SC, the first to be thus elevated in Guyana, making the appointments historic.
