Drama continued at Parliament today around PPP/C MP Juan Edghill who was later charged with breaching a police barricade and went of his own volition to the Brickdam Police Station to hear the charge against him. Edghill was also suspended from four sittings of Parliament for his disobeying of a directive by the Speaker of the National Assembly, Barton Scotland a day earlier. The motion to suspend him was successfully moved by APNU+AFC Chief Whip, Amna Ally.
