After being escorted to the Brickdam Police Station under heavy police guard, People’s Progressive Party (PPP) Parliamentarian, Bishop Juan Edghill was released from police custody on his own recognizance.
Edghill’s lawyer and former Attorney General, Anil Nandlall told a news conference on Tuesday at Public Buildings that the police also apologized to the PPP Parliamentarian. When asked several times why Edghill was arrested, senior police officials on the ground said they did know but acted on the instructions of Speaker of the National Assembly, Dr Barton Scotland.
