The police were summoned to the Arthur Chung Conference Centre (ACCC) yesterday after Opposition Member of Parliament (MP) Cathy Hughes reported that her laptop was missing.
However, the laptop resurfaced a few hours later but not before Speaker of the National Assembly Manzoor Nadir had threatened to have everyone in the compound searched.
Stabroek News understands that Hughes secured her laptop along with several documents in her briefcase before leaving for lunch when Parliament was suspended around 12 pm. She left her briefcase in the dome and when she returned she opened it and found that her laptop was missing but all other documents were there.
