DEAR EDITOR,
If press reports are to be believed, former Presidents Jagdeo and Ramotar have confirmed that Courtney Crum-Ewing’s killing was political. They have now joined me and others in expressing an opinion on a high profile killing. Both gentlemen opined that the activist may have been killed by the Opposition. President Jagdeo went further; he says we will be shocked if and when we learn who the killers are.
Hint a Beneba meck Quashiba teck notice.
Maybe these presidents, in their privileged positions in the State, have more information than the rest of us. My question is this—has Crime Chief Mr. Leslie James questioned these two gentlemen about the evidence they may have to support their theory of how the activist was killed? Have they been warned to desist from inciting racial and political violence? If they have not, I demand a public apology from the police.
Finally, both presidents have also hinted, one more explicitly than the other, that Mr. Crum-Ewing was a less than honourable person. All I say for now on that is that Michael Browne of Ferguson and Eric Garner of New York were both projected as criminals after they were killed. David Hinds
