“The PPP/C is concerned that the women were forced into silence by those who had an interest in ensuring that the truth surrounding what took place at the protest-riddled congress did not come to the fore.
“While this is not surprising the party believes that David Granger who holds himself out as the paragon of virtue political rectitude should now also express concern that the charges were dropped against a man whose actions clearly compromised the integrity of the PNCR’s Congress”, the PPP/C said.

 The PPP/C said it has noted the attempts by the PNCR to cover for Primo while using its opposition-media agents to downplay the issue.

You PPPites are on the verge of Priapal erections with Rodney and this fellow firing a non aggressive shot.

 

Not going to get you any happy ending!

PPP should tell us why charges against belair heist accused Shawn Hinds were dropped so that he could become Ramotar bodyguard and attend his swearing in ceremony.

 

Also how about the other criminals in the PPP that are now MP's and Forestry stakeholders? any idea when dem criminals now become good citizens?

The Opposition want a LAWLESS Guyana.  MO FIAH SLO FIAH!!!!!!!!!!!

“Had such developments occurred at the PPP/C’s Congress, it would have been splashed across the media and blown out of proportion. As a matter of fact, the PPP/C would have no doubt been the subject of ridicule and widespread criticisms from the opposition media and their interests.

Isn't this the mo fiah slow fiah man who is now part of the PPP?

 

This is all yuh new Guru? 

 

 

i can not wait to see them collie people putting mala on this monster

The AFC plays a game of throwing into the faces of gov't. supporters examples of former PNCites now in the PPP camps. The message they are conveying is that party has betrayed them by embracing some individuals from their main rival or adversary, the PNC. On the other hand the AFC supports the PNC like a loyal dog and try to justify it to the same PPP supporters. How do people take such message?  Do they lash out at the AFC for being so hypocritical?

What about Ashni, leaving the scene of an accident and eye witnesses alleging that he was drunk?

The PPP betrays itself. Only their PNCite can receive redemption and they have a whole posse of violent, vile and vindictive ones there from Harmon, to misir and manny.

 

The  Hypocrisy is they frame their entire campaign on the impossibility for there to be a difference in the PNC party and those who are its members. everyone by being PNC is immediately ethically challenged. Apparently there one becomes magically clean of ones sins in the PPP party alone.

The AFC has been shooting themselves in the feet for a while. They will realize this when election times. They performed well in the last elections but they squandered the little goodwill the party had by following the PNC like a dog instead of demonstrating to the Guyanese people that they are independent party that is truly interested in charting a new course with all involved.

Mitt,

 

You does debate like a lil bhai most of the times. Must try come up with something to make our minds really work. Something positive will do

If the campaign is in the pursuit of goodwill then we know where that is haplessly lacking. Unfortunately, good sense is what breeds goodwill and that is what the AFC should highlight....the absence of it in the PPP.

 

Again, the PPP have been obstinate donkeys completely in the overcome by the self delusion of their omniscience. There is no where to go with people like that

Billy Ram goat, were you concerned that Roger Khan was not prosecuted in Guyana?

Perception before the 2011 elections. Their cemented allegiance with the PNC immediately became clear after the election results.

Roger had his day in court and he will be out to see and experience the love people have for him  for  crushing the deadly FFs in Buxton. Many people are still alive today because of Roger. Off course, some are not alive because of him. Those are ones who wanted you to pay with your life

Cannot be highlighted since the AFC does not have those qualities.

Billy Ram Goat, how come you and your PPP/C were not concerned when Jagdeo who shot the guy 16 times,  walked free?

Now that is enlightening....an admirer of a drug lord! He still have a long time to go. On his return there is a silver bullet waiting somewhere since he killed the brother or father or relative of someone

DG,

 

The AFC is no longer a force in regions 5 and 6 where they picked up almost half of their votes. The PPP will make minced meat out of them. The PPP's greatest concern now is rigging by padding the voters' list with names of people who are not eligible voters

Stormy and Myth,

 

Why don't you ask Trotman or Ramjattan why two of Trotman's bodyguards were gunned down on the same day in Georgetown during the 2001 violent period?

Billy Ram Goat, how come you show no concern when 'Killermanlall' beat a young man with his gun and allegedly fire shot at a fair, he was never even arrested.

Hence, there must be careful attention to the compilation of the voters list.

 

In any fair and free elections, the PPP/C will always be the party with the most votes.

Billy Ram Goat, how about showing some concern for the killing of Sash Sawh and other members of his family?

The joint opposition, APNU/AFC, showed their concern by providing free attorneys to the killers of Sawh. With another face, they say Skinny was a PPP killer sent to kill the minister. Why would the joint-opposition want to provide free legal defense of a PPP killer?  NONSENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  The opposition is shameless!  Too many fabrications coming out of their local press shops. It is sickening to learn how these two parties are twisting the truth on anything and everything.

Bill Ram Goat , the fact is that the PPP/C has gone pass the PNC with its atrocities in less than 28 years.

 

 

Billy Ram Goat, how about showing some concerns for the findings of the probe into the NCN fraud? We can talk more in the morning.

Their deep internal focus are constantly revealed by these actions.

I knew Fecker was a punk but the other guy, his friend was not a bad person. He was also not a body guard but an aide to Trotman.  Who gunned them down was certainly not the PNC. It was either someone with a grievance against  the brutish Fecker or a PPP killer from the Gagraj crew wanting to make a point. The US is waiting for his behind. He has to come home by ship!

Speculations at best, perhaps?

Key witness in Congress Place shooting case says wasn’t told to attend court

-dissatisfied with freeing of accused

AUGUST 22, 2014 · 

Alisha Barker, the woman at the centre of the Congress Place shooting last month has denied that she wilfully did not turn up to testify in the court case and she is unhappy at the freeing of the accused.

Earlier this month, Linden Primo who was accused of threatening behaviour to Barker, thereby resulting in a breach of the peace was freed of the charge on the grounds of the continued absence of his accuser. Primo had been identified as the person who discharged a round during elections at the party’s Biennial Congress. There was a photograph with him holding a gun which was published in the Stabroek News the day after the incident.

Primo was nabbed at the airport as he was preparing to board a flight to the United States.

 

Alisha Barker

Barker, a resident of Linden and a party member had not attended court since the first hearing of the case on July 31.

She decided to break her silence on Tuesday after being contacted by this newspaper. She detailed what occurred at the congress and in the period leading up to when the matter was thrown out of court.

“I was never called to appear in court. When I went to court the first day I did not understand what happen and I thought the matter was finished”, Barker told this newspaper.

The woman said she was surprised to read in the newspapers that she was called repeatedly and that she failed to appear in court. She said that she is not sure what she can do now.

Prosecutor Jomo Nichols in his address to the court on the day the matter was dismissed apologized for Barker’s repeated absence while explaining that he could not say why she kept absenting herself from every hearing.

The prosecutor explained that he personally made several calls to the phone number provided by Barker but to no avail. He said he also prepared summons which were served on the woman but yet she failed to respond or attend court. According to Nichols from the initial hearing Barker had always been aware of subsequent court dates but he could not say why she was not attending court.

Detective Corporal Hurbert Henry was the lone witness who took the stand. Keisha Sampson, another witness who failed to attend court was said to be in Berbice.

“I feel that this is a whole cookery. It is a sellout that is just my feelings,” Barker told Stabroek News in the interview.

Linden Primo

She said Opposition and PNCR Leader Leader David Granger would not want the man to be convicted for the alleged Congress Place shooting incident.

Barker said leading up to the case she was called and warned to not follow through with the matter.

“But I was still prepared to go to court because I say if I have to dead let me dead but I am telling you no one called me, that is the truth,” she maintained.

Stressing that she is “very dissatisfied” over the outcome of matter the woman also expressed shock at how she learnt the man was eventually charged. She said that she was called and told to go to the station to identify Primo but when she arrived with her lawyer she was gruffly told by the police that the man was appearing in court.

“I had to go down to the station. Nobody tell me that he get charged and when I went down I ain’t even understand what went on and nobody tell me to come back to court.”, Barker said.

She also stated that she does not understand the charge that was instituted against the man and questioned why he was not charged with being in possession of a firearm when he was apparently not the holder of a licence as well as threatening behaviour since she felt very threatened on July 27th when the incident occurred.

Discrepancies with the Region 10 list

Recounting what transpired on the day of the shooting, Barker recalled that the Linden contingent arrived at Congress Place and even though she said they had done due diligence and ensured that their list was in order they were told on arrival that there were some discrepancies with the list.

She said they (the entire delegation) were advised by party member and Member of Parliament (MP) Winston Felix to go to the door of the conference room where the issue would be sorted out. However on arrival at the door MP Annette Ferguson, who was calling out names, indicated that the members of the Region 10 delegation should step back. Barker said she objected and said that it was unfair and that whatever issue their list had should be sorted.

“As soon as I say that, I see this man [Primo], who was standing behind her, whole countenance change and some other lady start like teasing him…” she said.

The woman said she took out her phone and started videoing. The woman, according to her continued to tease Primo and it was at this point that he pulled out a gun.

“I didn’t feel threaten when he do that because I say man this is Congress Place and is in public nobody will shoot.”

While the other persons were teasing him, Barker said that Primo kept his eyes on her before allegedly firing a shot. The crowd, she related then swarmed her and she fell to the ground.

“When I fall to the ground with people running around me this man come and stand over me and point he gun at me and is then I feel really threatened and is some guys come and move he away…and when I on the floor one ah dem even kick me up,” Barker said.

As she rose to her feet in a daze, Barker said she was even more shocked at a statement made by one of the party’s leading figures.

She related that the person said “Linden people always making trouble and disgusting, shoot them and kill them’. And I say to myself how you could say something like that about a people who have been supporting you? A people who help you do so well at the last elections because they vote for you?”

She also expressed shock at the way she was treated at Congress Place after the incident as she said while staff members picked her up and offered her water no one wanted to assist her in reporting the matter.

“I tell them I want report the matter because I was scared for my life and nobody you know ain’t advise what station to go or even offer to take me to the station,” the 36-year-old mother of four said.

Barker noted that Lindeners have traditionally worked hard for the PNCR and they should be treated with more respect. She charged that the leadership of the party is trying to divide the bottom.

“Now it is hard for me to support a party that does not support its grass root,” Barker said stating it is was in 2011 that she really came to the forefront of the party in Linden and worked.

She recalled that she helped organize all the meetings in Linden with those in charge in the mining town and how the ladies would at times leave their family to ensure things run smoothly whenever there was a PNC event in the mining town.

Asked if she would support the party in the future, Barker said that she cannot support any other party because she grew up with her parents and grandparents supporting the PNC.

“I would support our Chairman Mr (Sharma) Solomon because he is a young man…but when it comes to working for the party and so on no I would not be at the forefront”, she stressed.

 End of matter

Meanwhile, it is unclear if the police intend to pursue another case against Primo in light of how this case ended.

However, a legal source told Stabroek News that because the matter was a summary one in which the accused was allowed to plead, the same charge cannot be refiled against him. It was explained that when the case was discharged it was on merit meaning that it was a summary charge in which the person was required to plead.

It was also explained that it is not only based on the fact that he had pleaded that the same charge cannot be refiled but because the accused would be put in double jeopardy, meaning that he would be charged twice for the same offence.

“This is why the laws should be changed…because people find all kinds of loopholes to get it thrown out”, the source stressed.

Conscience Bhai, thanks for exposing the incompetency of the PPP/C.

 

Conscience bhai,  so this is yuh new Guru + Guru Kwamee. Go and worship him with nuf nuf mala and Kurta shirts. Prem se bolo, Bynoe ji ki jai! 

She said Opposition and PNCR Leader Leader David Granger would not want the man to be convicted for the alleged Congress Place shooting incident.

Barker said leading up to the case she was called and warned to not follow through with the matter.

“But I was still prepared to go to court because I say if I have to dead let me dead but I am telling you no one called me, that is the truth,” she maintained.

Billy you are not very fail on this comment to the AFC:

 

First of all INDEPENDENCE IS A RELATIVE TERM.  The AFC is a political party, it has to be partisan to a cause.  Are you suggesting that the AFC is not INDEPENDENT OF THE PPP and PNC?

I can see the PPP hands all over this, ROHEE at work!

The PPP should be concerned about Sam hinds son beating up women and threatening dem wid a gun, same for bruk up son who is on record for brutalizing women with a gun.

So what is the PPP talking about these criminals in the PPP should be in jail.
