Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Shalimar Ali-Hack earlier today submitted her written response to applications made by lawyers representing Police Commissioner Henry Greene to block a rape charge she recommended, from being instituted against him.
Greene’s lawyers will have until Friday to respond after which Chief Justice Ian Chang would decide on the fate of Greene who is presently on leave.
Last month, a team of lawyers headed by Senior Counsel Rex Mc Kay moved to the court to block the police from charging Greene. Justice Chang granted applications for the DPP’s advice to be place on hold and to temporarily bar the police from instituting the charge against Greene.
Greene has been accused of raping a 34-year-old mother of two who went to him for assistance. He has stated that he had consensual sex with the woman.
