A meeting to swear in the new executive committee of the public service credit union was disrupted yesterday by dissidents and the court might be approached again on the festering dispute.

Court action was signalled by one of the newly elected members of the Guyana Public Service Cooperative Credit Union Limited (GPSCCUL) Christopher Thompson. He and the other members of the new committee were elected at a controversial court-ordered Special General Meeting on Saturday.

Thompson who is also one of the attorneys representing the credit union deemed yesterday’s “melee” involving former members of the executive, Karen Vanslutyman-Corbin, Ruth Howard and Saskia Eastman-Onwuzirike as “embarrassing and crass”.
