Myers gets bail on misconduct charges

Roxanne Myers outside the city courts yesterday

Deputy Chief Election Officer (DCEO) Roxanne Myers was yesterday granted bail in the sum of $300,000 after she was arraigned at a city court on two counts of misconduct in public office.

Myers, who appeared before Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan in George-town, was not required to plead to the indictable charges.

State Prosecutor Teriq Mohammed objected to bail based on the seriousness of the offence, while claiming that Myers attempted to undermine the country’s democracy.
