ToolsAG sues ‘Guardian’
Attorney General Anand Ramlogan has sent a pre-action protocol letter to the Trinidad Guardian over an article published on September 11, in which it was suggested that he “ignored legal advice” tendered by Queen’s Counsel James Lewis that the State should appeal the High Court’s decision not to allow the extradition of Ishwar Galbansingh and Steve Ferguson.
The AG’s pre-action letter, which was signed by attorney Kelvin Ramkissoon, stated that the reporter selectively chose parts of the Lewis advice, in the process “misrepresenting the true purport and intent thereof”. The pre-action procotol letter stated that the words contained in the Guardian article were libellous, “maliciously published” and “calculated to damage and defame my client in his professional and political reputation”. |
