The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) has recommended that no criminal charge be brought against SOCU officers over their detention of attorney, Tamieka Clarke and private criminal charges against the three officers have also been tossed.
A letter dated December 12, 2022, which was signed by DPP, Shalimar Ali-Hack was sent to Magistrate Annette Singh, discontinuing the private criminal charges. The letter was copied to Clarke.
“In exercise of the powers conferred on me by article 187 (1) (c) of the Constitution of the Republic of Guyana, I hereby discontinue the charges,” the letter states.
