Attorney General, Basil Williams yesterday launched a scathing attack on Deputy Solicitor General, Prithima Kissoon following a disclosure that she had complained to the Public Service Commission (PSC) about him in an escalating row that has also drawn in Solicitor General Sita Ramlal.
The controversy revolves around the State’s handling of a case in which former President Bharrat Jagdeo had been accused of racially inflammatory language. The appeal brought by the state against a decision by the High Court that the magistrate had no jurisdiction was thrown out by the Guyana Court of Appeal this month as an abuse of the court’s process. This result has seen the AG accusing Kissoon of responsibility for this which she has denied and she has issued her own accusations against the AG.
