Leader of the Opposition Aubrey Norton said that the revelations by the United Nations Human Rights Committee concerning the PPP/C’s unwillingness to investigate allegations of corruption and bribery by cabinet officials is a testament to the ruling regime’s lack of accountability and respect for democracy.

He told the press on Thursday that while these revelations by the UN are a total embarrassment to the country and its citizens, the Human Rights Committee exposed the true nature of the Ali-led regime which is “bad governance”.

The Leader of the PNCR, at his party’s press briefing, lambasted Minister of Governance and Parliamentary Affairs Gail Teixeira for “doctoring”, “evading”, and “fabricating”, her responses to questions posed by US Committee Member Laurence Helfer.
