Attorney Nirvan Singh, who is accused of verbally abusing a police constable with racist remarks while she was performing guard duties at his father’s residence, was charged on Wednesday.
Singh, 35, of Middle and Cummings streets, Georgetown, appeared before Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan in a city court where he denied the private criminal charge that on March 20, 2022, at Middle and Cummings streets, he made derogatory and racial remarks to Police Constable Shawnette Bollers while she was on duty at his father’s residence, where he also resided.
According to the charge, Singh, by means of words spoken in a public place, willfully excited and or attempted to excite hostility and ill-will against the complainant on the ground of her race as an Afro-Guyanese, by using words directed to her and published by him.
