Sep 05, 2012 News

Four of the five members of the Commission of Inquiry to look into the fatal Linden shooting which left three persons dead were sworn in today before President Donald Ramotar. Justice Lensley Wolfe O.J., Mr. K.D. Knight S.C and Ms. Dana Seetahal S.C, along with former Guyana Court of Appeal Judge, Claudette Singh, yesterday pledged their integrity to the Commission. The commission’s fifth member former Chancellor of the Judiciary and the current Chairman of the Police Complaints Authority Cecil Kennard was absent from the ceremony.

This newspaper was told that Kennard is currently on annual leave and would return in mid September. Attorney General Anil Nandlall has told Kaieteur News that the Commission’s work will begin within 14 days under the Chairmanship of Justice Lensley Wolfe O.J.

In August, the Government and the Opposition came to an agreement on a foreign component being added to the Commission of Inquiry into the Linden protest killing. Just over a month ago, 24-year-old Shemroy Bouyea, 46-year-old Allan Lewis, and 17-year-old Ron Somerset were killed on the first day of a planned-five day protest by Lindeners.
