One week after the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) recommended the laying of a charge, police have yet to arraign Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA) manager Andrew Kellman, who is accused of sexually assaulting a worker at the facility.
The DPP’s Communication Officer Liz Rahaman yesterday confirmed that the case file was returned to the police with recommendation that a charge of sexual assault be instituted against Kellman.
Last Wednesday, the DPP’s Chambers, in a press statement, said, “Based on the evidence contained in the police file, legal advice has been given to the Guyana Police Force for the charge of sexual assault to be instituted against the accused Andre Kellman.” The advice was given almost two months after a complaint was made to the police. Kellman is accused of kissing and touching a woman employed at the facility without her consent on July 30th, 2018. After no action was taken despite complaints to the CJIA’s management, the woman filed a report with the police on June 17th this year.
