This is the dark, ugly side of politics in Guyana. “Weighing in on the matter, Ramsaroop’s attorney Robert Corbin said he found it strange that the police would place his client on station bail while continuing investigations into allegations that were “farcical.”“The allegations are farcical and wild and appear to be politically directed, but we will wait for what the police have to say on the matter. |
