A recipe everywhere for disaster and damnation

Mar 27, 2022 Letters

Dear Editor,

Kaieteur News – Pascal reminded us with these few words that, “Justice without power is inefficient; power without justice is tyranny.”
It has come to my attention that as a result of what seems to be a purely family matter, that a well placed businessman, a person with known PPP solid connections, one Mr. Hamid, whose daughter is the wife of the Chairman of Region 4, Daniel Seeram, a former member of the Guyana Defence Force, had an exchange of words outside of MovieTowne.
Both parties made similar complaints to the police. The information is that the files were sent to the C.I.D.
The police by telephone informed Mr. Seeram that he has been charged for threatening behaviour and must appear in Court.
In ordinary circumstances, we should ignore this incident, however in a politically polarized society, one can hardly ignore the perception that sections of the Force, as we noted the Police in other circumstances, is acting on directions from our political establishment.
If there is any validity of this perception, it means we as a people are in serious trouble that no sane or sensible Guyanese wishes to see this materialise.
I am sending this letter to the Hon. Minister of Home Affairs and Commissioner of Police, for them to explain why only one Party of this alleged verbal exchange is being hauled before the Court.
Some of us grew up believing in the old wisdom that says let justice be done though the heavens fall.
Let us do nothing to create an impression that sections of the Police Force are no longer impartial and professional. A recipe everywhere for disaster and damnation.

Best regards,
Hamilton Green
Elder
