Jordan sues state, police for malicious prosecution

Winston Jordan

Former Minister of Finance Winston Jordan has filed an action in which he is seeking damages in excess of $300,000,000 against the police and Director of publications (DPP), whom he said had maliciously charged and prosecuted him.

Meanwhile, in a separate constitutional action, he is asking the Supreme Court to declare that the police had infringed his right to protection from inhumane and or degrading treatment and protection of freedom of movement.

His court actions surround the misconduct in public office charge which had been instituted against him back in December of 2021; and for which he was found not guilty in May of last year.
