Attorney Nigel Hughes on Friday announced that he will be challenging the decision by the Director of Prosecutions (DPP) to discontinue the private criminal charge against Head of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), Wendell Blanhum over statements he made about Detective Sergeant Dion Bascom.
“…That decision of the Director of Public Prosecutions is going to be challenged and I believe that it is going to be subject to a long challenge all the way up to the apex court because we don’t believe that the persons who are responsible for making decisions on whether a criminal charges continue or discontinue can do so merely or without any basis whatsoever,” Hughes told a press conference at his Hadfield Street, Georgetown office.
