Barbara Pilgrim seeks apology

Jan 08, 2019 Letters

Dear Editor,

I refer to a news item published on page 7 in your Sunday, January 6th, 2019 edition of your Newspaper (Guyana Times) under the caption, “Charrandas citizenship controversy: New MP also has dual citizenship – sources”.
The news item is totally misleading and false as it refers to my dual citizenship and is clearly intended to discredit me in the context of the present constitutional and Parliamentary controversy.
Let me categorically state that I am a born Guyanese citizen holding a Guyana Passport;that I have never been the citizen of any other country and that I have never held a passport issued by any other country.
I have referred this matter to my lawyers for advice, but now call upon you to make an immediate retraction of your story and offer me an unqualified apology, which should be published in the same manner as your news item.
I do not know who is, or who was your, “well-placed sources”, but no one from your newspaper contacted me or made any attempt to do so.

Yours truly
Barbara Pilgrim
