Contrary to a report in yesterday’s edition of the Stabroek News, the Attorney General’s Chambers was represented during an in-chamber hearing on Tuesday before acting Chief Justice Roxane George SC in the challenge mounted by former Finance Minister Dr Ashni Singh and former head of the National Industrial and Commercial Investments Limited (NICIL) Winston Brassington who have been charged with misconduct in public office.
The state was in fact represented by Principal Legal Advisor of the chambers, attorney Tiffany Castello.
Attorney Anil Nandlall who represents Singh and Brassington, and by whom this newspaper was told the state was unrepresented apologized for the error.
In a brief comment last evening, Nandlall said that what he meant was that neither the attorney general, the solicitor general nor any of the other lawyers previously listed on record in the case had attended the hearing.
Stabroek News regrets the error.
