this ppp government have turn guyana in a little hell a government without any standard were is rohee you mean to say that there is no government minister with a backbone to speak out against these act of lawlessness 

Again, I refer you to the police leadership, Brummel and his direct reports. Why did you bypass them for accountability and go all the way up to the PPP leadership? No one is refuting that the woman was abused, however what we want to understand is why the police are not doing their jobs of bringing charges against this person. Your assumption is that this person is given preferential treatment due to his political affiliation. I take it a step further and claim that it is a nationwide affliction where women are battered at will by the males in their lives and the police does nothing. Solving the wider problem is more important than concentrating on the political issue. 

The hypocrisy of some advocacy groups

Dear Editor,
The hypocrisy of some women’s right organization is just inexplicable.  There is a certain domestic abuse advocacy group called the Caribbean American Domestic Violence Awareness (CADVA) with members such as Anand Budram, Dianne Madray and Sukree Boodram who all and sundry would want to support since their mission is to provide a safe environment for individuals combat domestic violence.  Noble objective indeed!
No human being will have any problem with that since they are supposed to fight a plague called domestic violence in the Caribbean especially Guyana.  What really bothers me is how these PPP satellites can choose to press some abusers and cut others much slack.
Unfortunately the issue of domestic violence does not give us the latitude to pick and choose. This is not politics; this is life and death for the victims.
In March 2013, when member of the AFC Charandass Persaud made disparaging remarks about a certain female doctor, Ms. Diane Madray, a CADVA member on her Facebook page claimed that she is “outraged and … certainly hope that the AFC executives apologise… as it is an attack on all women”.
She was quite in order to demand an apology from Mr. Persaud to which he thoughtfully did soon after the transgression.  Great work on that issue CADVA!
But to my grave disappointment, today with photographic and documentary evidence at their disposal and an alleged accusation against Mr. Robeson Benn Jnr, the son of a Minister of the PPP Government for rape, physical and mental abuse of a country girl from Essequibo, this same CADVA issued a totally different statement.  In this case this is worst by indescribable magnitudes; CADVA extends their “thoughts and prayers for Miss Vanisha Seenauth as she is attempting to recover physically and emotionally from the attack by her alleged abuser, Robeson Benn Jr.”
No outrage from Ms Madray or Ms Boodram or Mr. Budram; no demand for justice from these so called domestic abuse advocates, no firm condemnation of these alleged multiple acts of domestic terror against this young lady even though the picture of the victim is all over the world now with her “bloodshot eyes”.
It really sickens my stomach when an organization takes funds from donors to do work in areas that the world really need help, but chooses to protect political godfathers when the oppressor and domestic terrorist is allegedly a son of one of their god fathers.
Shame on CADVA!
Further, I hear nothing from the PPP- women’s arm the WPO, the AFC women’s arm the WFC, or the PNC women’s arm the WRSM.  Where is Red Thread, the Rights of the Child Organisation, the Amerindian People’s Association, the Guyana Human Right Association and all these organizations that were set up to protect our women and those who had their rights violated?  Where is Gail Teixeira, Indra Chandarpal, Cathy Hughes, Debra Backer and all these women?  What happen to the new charm of the PPP and newly minted President of the Guyana Hindu Dharmic Sabha, Ms Vindya Persaud?  What happened to First Lady Deolatchmie Ramotar? Has women’s right fallen off the map for them because the alleged perpetrator is one of their own? How can I respect them ever again?
Guyana is really a sad place when these princelings of the PPP can pull gun, break people’s limbs and now they have moved into a different zone with these allegation of rape and brutalization of an extreme magnitude.
But what is worst is the hypocrisy from the established women right’s group on this issue.
This child could have been by daughter.  Shame on you women of Guyana!

this problem is world wide you can try this shit in canada

What I know is that a person is innocent until proven guilty. The WPO would be remiss on jumping on the bandwagon of bashers when the case is not even proven. For all we know the young woman could have set this entire affair up at the behest of the AFC/pnc. The law has to take its course. 

The law has apparently already taken its course because the alleged batterer has been released.

Maybe you need to find out why he was released, already you pronounced this fellow guilty based on news reports. While we may have opinions as to innocence or guilt, we need to let the law take its course as we see with the Trayvon Martin case. 

Looks like Zimmerman will walk within two weeks.  Case over, that 19 yr old illiterate state star witness handed it to the defense.

That can't happen. If he walks there will be nationwide riots. Remember Rodney King. In this case someone died.

It has to be on the merits.  I don't say Zimmerman is not guilty of anything, but he may walk in 2nd degree, which means he walk.

Zimmermann killed a man and everyone knows this, he will have to face the consequences despite all the legal niceities.

which law guyana have one of those

What you mean?  From what I see thus far, Zimmerman is mounting a good "self defense" case.  Sound to me like the prosecutor selling out the case calling witnesses who corroborate Zimmerman's position.  What a disaster.

At the end of the proceedings, there will be a decision.

However, individuals do have their personal views.

Okay, I'm now presuming the fellow's innocence.

Looking at Benn's ex-girlfriend Vanisha Seenauth's face in that photo from this standpoint, I am left to pronounce that a UFO gave her the black eye.

There are 3/4 million people in Guyana, pick anyone of them then move on to UFO. You keep missing the point, everyone is entitled to due process. Even thought it appears that Benn was the culprit, we can not assemble a lynch mob without a trial. Even the worst criminal is afforded a trial.  The black eye is a simple assault, it happens everyday in the US and people are not even arrested.   

So says, His Lordship 

I see Druggies support homan beating once is ah PPP man doing the beating

If something happen more than once then one may cautiously hint at a pattern of behavior. When it is so much familiar, ie the sun coming up in the morning then it is predictable in science and society it constitute a practice.

It is clearly a matter of the expectations of the society from the privileged untouchable class created by the PPP . Ramotar’s son, Repu’s son, Nanda’s son too privileges no less in their serious criminal infractions before the state.

If the young lady could not get acknowledgement in  a criminal case and the young man walked despite the serious accusation of rape and aggravated assault while in possession of a fire arm, do you think she stand much of a chance otherwise in a system not geared for civil suits?

How can the society take back its authority if not rescinding the authority of the PPP? I think you would not want that. Preventing that  is the reason you are here making the devils bargain daily and lying your ass off on their account.

In the US there are systems in place to address the issue or rape. Ask those indo boys who are ending up in Rikers or put out of their homes on account of abusing ( even verbally) their wife . No one is suggesting that there are not too many of these cases presenting but victims are not subjected to systematic neglect and political abused when they complain.

I would not call you an illiterate but your ability to reason from a definite input is clearly wacky. There is no evidence that the young woman is illiterate. As a matter of fact she is literate in three languages and English is clearly not her first language.

If Zimmerman walks is not because anything in this young woman’s demeanor, intellect  or retelling of a story intimate her has been compromise despite being 4 hours on the stand and facing down hostile and withering cross examination.
