Justice Claudette Singh

Chairperson of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM), retired Justice Claudette Singh on Tuesday voted with government-appointed commissioners to release the documents presented by the APNU+AFC coalition during the recount process for the March 2020 polls which it alleged pointed to fraud.

Government-nominated Commissioner, Sase Gunraj yesterday told Stabroek News that the matter came up for discussion at Tuesday’s statutory meeting.

According to Gunraj, the Opposition Commissioners – Vincent Alexander, Charles Corbin and Desmond Trotman – requested that the matter be discussed before a decision was made. “They vehemently objected to the release of those documents,” he said.
