Sharma to face Magistrate today

Apr 20, 2010 News

Embattled television station owner and Presidential candidate, Chandra Narine Sharma, is expected to appear in court today, to answer various charges ranging from carnal knowledge to indecent exposure.
Sources close to the investigation said that Sharma was expected to appear in court, yesterday, but complications concerning his health had to be addressed.
The source said that the officers visited him at the hospital and told him of the various allegations which are being levied against him. Unconfirmed reports claim that Sharma suffered a relapse after he learnt that he would have being brought to court. Sharma, according to the source is vehemently denying the allegations.
On Saturday, the girls aged five, nine, 18 and 21, as well as a cousin, aged 12, were all questioned by ranks at the Criminal Investigation Department at Eve Leary.
The eldest sister is claiming that the father of her child is C.N. Sharma.
The TV host had to be rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation on Wednesday evening after he was taken to the Brickdam lockups.
Sharma had previously been questioned at the Eve Leary Police Station in relation to the allegations of rape leveled against him by a 13-year-old girl in a signed sworn affidavit.
This course of action by the police followed reports by the Ministry of Human Services and Social Security’s Child Care and Protection Department of multiple rapes committed on four underage sisters. That arm of the Human Services and Social Security commenced investigations of its own after receiving reports.
The action comes in wake of revelations that a 13-year-old girl in a sworn affidavit signed by Justice of the Peace and Commissioner of Oaths to Affidavits, Lachman Ramdass, and dated April 12, 2010, recounted a most harrowing tale of repeated rape and sexual molestation of four sisters over several years.
