The Organization of Commonwealth Caribbean Bar Associations (OCCBA) and the Commonwealth Lawyers Association have both labelled the brief arrest of Attorney-at-Law Tamieka Clarke by SOCU as unlawful and called for immediate action against the Guyana Police Force unit.
Attorney Clarke, who is attached to the law firm of Shaun Allicock but previously worked in the Director of Public Prosecutions’ Chambers, was arrested on October 28, 2022, after she advised her client to remain silent and not provide the Special Organised Crime Unit (SOCU) with a statement.
