Dear Editor,
I couldn’t help laughing out loud and then suddenly turning angry on reading your news item, ‘CANU staff who fail polygraph to be fired’ (May 10), attributed to President Bharrat Jagdeo.
This government has been making some dumb moves over the past years, but this one takes the cake. This has to be the dumbest move for any government in a modern world to take against its employees, because even though lie detector tests are helpful in gauging a person’s possible honesty or truthfulness in a contentious issue, it is not pure science and is not even admissible in a court of law.
