Residents of Linden during the weekend rebuffed efforts by extreme elements aligned to the political opposition to further incite unrest in that community. As a result the Alliance for Change's Nigel Hughes, Freddie Kissoon, Mark Benschop, Lincoln Lewis and Christopher Ram were prevented from addressing a rally organized to update residents on the progress of the agreement signed by the government and that region. During the mid part of 2012 a series of demonstrations in that community against proposed electricity hikes became violent after these very individuals incited members of the community to block bridges, dig up roads etc. Demonstrators became hostile and things reached a tipping point when 3 persons were killed with the police receiving the blame.
Lewis, Hughes, Kissoon and others used the opportunity to foment violence by encouraging residents to become violent charging that it is their constitutional right to do so. Access to the interior via that community was then cut off with some persons being robbed or charged exorbitant sums in exchange for passage.
