The Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) yesterday issued a stern reprimand to Attorney General Anil Nandlall SC over the premature release of its findings in the appeal by the Opposition APNU+AFC against the throwing out of its election petition. (See other story on page 2.)
Emphatically registering its displeasure with Nandlall’s conduct which it described as “unacceptable” and capable of bringing the court’s integrity into disrepute, the judges who heard the appeal were visibly incensed about the leak.
Justice Jacob Wit on behalf of the Bench ordered Nandlall who was absent from the hearing, to publicly apologize via his Facebook page, where the post had been made, noting that “we don’t take this lightly at all.”
