Georgetown : The Guyana Police Force clears the air and in a statement says the biasness of the Kaieteur News in their publishing of the article captioned “Local Chutney star sues Top Cop” in the Kaieteur News Tuesday August 04, 2015 is malicious.
The lawsuit by Mahendra Ramkellawan was filed on June 01, 2015, whereby the Commissioner of Police, two other members of the Guyana Police Force and the Attorney General are being sued.
The State filed an Affidavit in response on July 27, 2015, which denied the allegations and indicated that the arrest of Mahendra Ramkellawan was in accordance with the law.
Even though the State’s response is a public document in the same docket as Mahendra Ramkellawan’s claims at the Supreme Court Registry, Kaieteur News has deliberately omitted to indicate the State’s response to the lawsuit.
The Police Force calls on the Guyanese public to insist on professional journalism from the media houses operating in Guyana.
