Puzzlement of an ignorant layman
DEAR EDITOR,
Let me confess that my acquaintances with the law and its intricacies is tending upwards from minus to zero to plus zero.
Thus pray tell me, how does a layman reconcile the recent fraud charges made against the former Minister of Public Infrastructure and the withdrawal of the charges from former Minister of Legal Affairs and Attorney General, Anil Nandlall? I am reminded however of a statement allegedly made by an eminent English Jurist “The Law is an ass.” Maybe in all the circumstances, one should heed the advice given by a former eminent PPP official when he said in another context, “this confounded nonsense must stop.”
Perhaps my puzzlement is truly that of an ignorant layman – ignorant that is from its Latin roots meaning, “I do not know.”
And what of those persons who were allocated lots in the “Pradovilles” who flipped them allegedly at no small gain?
Yours truly,
Rashleigh E. Jackson
