Dear Sir,
The high profile case of Carol Ann Lynch escaped the attention of the Legal Analyst in the letter published in your newspapers of April 12, 2012 under the caption “The DPP offers faulty advice.”
Carol Ann Lynch was charged for the murder of her husband, Farouk Razack, who was the owner of Swiss House Cambio. Miss Lynch who was a beauty queen was locked up for over nine months after which the charges were discharged in the courts as there was no evidence to support the charge.
However, the DPP reinstituted the charge of murder against Miss Lynch and she fled the jurisdiction as she would have been in prison unto this day.
It is my considered view that there should be an enquiry into the actions of the DPP into the matters highlighted to determine whether the DPP acted in good faith, fairly, honestly, impartially and free of political and religious influences in the discharge of her duties. If not, she should be made to face the full force of the law and dismissed from the office of DPP.
There are presently many actors in the Judiciary— The Acting Chancellor, Acting Chief Justice, Acting Judges, Acting Registrar etc. The DPP was acting at one time. But the records would show that she was the only one who was confirmed in that position and that was in the year 2007 shortly after she advised the Police to charge those three innocent Managers of NB S. Was her confirmation related to this matter?
I urge all Guyanese to examine carefully the names of the persons charged in the matters listed by Legal Analyst and the one above and draw your own conclusion. James R. Singh
