An unwarranted attack on Moses Nagamootoo’s character

Apr 12, 2012 Letters

 

DEAR EDITOR,
The Guyana Chronicle headline dated 04/12/12 and captioned, “Moses has lost his way now a self confessed child abuser”, can be described as nothing but a lowdown, dirty and shameless act of the PPP/C government.
The PPP/C in a brazen fashion has decided to use AFC Member of Parliament Moses Nagamootoo’s comments, while making his budget speech in the parliament to label him a child abuser.
Is this the way the government intends to continue to abuse state resources to defame and make libelous statements against citizens? I figure this is another one of their intimidation and defaming tactics. The charge of a child abuser is a serious one and the government must know that such a charge may have the potential to injure a person’s character, and so to make this deliberate and malicious statement against Mr. Nagamootoo is an unfortunate and wicked thing to do.
As a citizen of Guyana I have the right to demand that the editor of the Guyana Chronicle retract the article and offer an apology to Mr. Nagamootoo. I also have a right to let the editor of Chronicle, and the PPP/C government, understand that abusing state resources to attack the character of those who disagree with them is an act of the most brutal of dictators.
