Proceedings against Lowenfield, Mingo adjourned

The court proceedings against Chief Election Officer Keith Lowenfield and Returning Officer Clairmont Mingo have been adjourned until next month.

Lowenfield, who is facing three charges of forgery and misconduct in public office in wake of the March 2 elections, was informed that due to the magistrate presiding over the matter having to attend seminars, the matters were being postponed.

A reliable source told this newspaper that Lowenfield attended court on both Wednesday and Thursday and on both days he was told the matter was postponed for a later date. Lowenfield is facing three counts of misconduct in public office and three counts of forgery.
