APNU rebukes President over handling of Dharamlall case

Nigel Dharamlall

A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) yesterday castigated President Irfaan Ali over his handling of a rape allegation scandal that engulfed Local Government Minister Nigel Dharamlall.

APNU, the main opposition, said Ali’s statement on Tuesday night accepting the resignation of Dharamlall was “shameless, pathetic, callous, and unacceptable”.

It said that the President showed no remorse or sympathy towards the complainant in the matter, a 16-year-old girl.
