How many of these GNI daags will call for the head of Jagnarine Singh for Obstruction of Justice as there was a clear attempt to pervert justice here?
Officialâs son charged for rape of girl, 14
Vishnu Singh, the son of a high-profile member of the Peopleâs Progressive Party (PPP) was
hauled before the Sparendaam Magistrateâs Court yesterday to face the charge of rape of a child under 16 years old.
He left the courtroom two hours later having posted bail in the sum of $400,000.
General Manager of the Guyana Rice Development Board (GRDB), Jagnarine Singh, was present in the courtroom so that when bail was fixed, he was on hand to post the stipulated sum and to support his son, Vishnu Singh. The matter was held in camera.
Neither the 14-year-old victim nor any of her relatives was in court. Singh was not required to plead when the charge was read to him by Magistrate Zamela Ali.
Prosecutor John Singh informed the Magistrate that the 23-year-old, who manages a trucking business, allegedly met the complainant on January 27, last, on Agriculture Road. At the time, she was still attired in her uniform.
It is alleged that the assailant was driving his motherâs car and had lured the young woman into the vehicle under the pretext that they were going to discuss the things she needed for a beauty pageant she is interested in.
The Prosecutor also revealed that the accused and the victim stayed in contact for some time on Facebook and text messages via mobile phones.
The Magistrate took note of the point that Singh had voluntarily presented himself to the police for questioning when the allegations were made by the victim.
Kaieteur News understands that the accused claims that he did not rape the teenage girl but that the sex was consensual. However, the age of consent in Guyana, is 16 years old.
Attorney at Law, Ganesh Hira, represented Singh and stated that his client who lives at Lot 8 Back Street, Better Hope, East Coast Demerara with his parents and siblings had no prior charges and that it was the first time he is before any court. He requested bail in a reasonable amount. But the Prosecutor objected.
Despite a police officer, who was recently exposed in an attempt to negotiate settlement with the victimâs cousin, being investigated, the accused was granted bail.
The businessman is required to report to Sparendaam Police Station every Friday at 10:00 hrs and refrain from making any contact with the victim via any means. He was also instructed to lodge his passport with the court.
After the matter was heard, the GRDB Manager left the court room and returned to post bail for his son.
The accused lingered in the courtroom for several minutes. With his head tucked in the front of his blue, plaid shirt, he hurried down the stairs to the back of the court where his father was parked and waiting to collect him.
Reporters swarmed the full-figured man until he got into the back seat of his fatherâs Nissan truck.
Jagnarine Singh appeared to be peeved that media operatives followed his son, as he was heard, shouting, âHey, Hey, Hey, Donât touch my vehicle. Back off.â
The accused is scheduled to return on February 18.
Kaieteur News had initially broken the story on Sunday. The teen had submitted detailed statements of the alleged rape as well as a medical document to police. She reportedly also took photographs which show bite marks that were allegedly inflicted during the assault.
Minister of Human Services and Social Security, Jennifer Webster had subsequently urged Commissioner of Police Seelall Persaud to give the case âspecial attention.â
Webster had also requested that Persaud conduct a âdetailed investigationâ into allegations that a police rank tried to pervert the course of justice into the matter.
Just one day after, the Director of Public Prosecutions was in possession of the file and had advised for the son of the prominent official to be charged. The matter involving the alleged defaulting officer is still being investigated.

People need to start taking the law into their own hands in Guyana since the law courts can't seem to deliver justice.

Is where Nehru hiding? Every time I post some inside info directly from the horse's mouth in Guyana he screams I making it up. But once again my source is spot on. I fingered fat boy as the guilty party long before anyone dared to disclose his measurements.
I'm looking on a mobile. Is that a piece of bacon in his hand?
Haha, how much did the fat fella weigh mr T?

Why waste good rope? We got loads of bricks. You just have to bend down and pick them up. Just watch your back though. It is dangerous to bend down in Guyana.

Vigilante justice is given moral license when a society's system for justice irreparably breaks down.
In Guyana, there is no justice system only the state of nature.
