– “sad day for women in Guyana”Former Lecturer at the University of Guyana and Kaieteur News columnist Freddie Kissoon, along with Social Activist Mark Benschop and APNU member Malcolm Harripaul yesterday staged a protest outside of Chief Justice Ian Chang’s Office.The trio was protesting what they say is the biased decision which the Chief Justice gave in the rape investigation involving embattled Commissioner of Police Henry Greene.From left Freddie Kissoon, Mark Benschop and Malcolm HarripaulKissoon said they are protesting because Thursday afternoon’s judgment by Chang can only be seen as one of the biggest judicial mistakes in the country. Kissoon said that the pattern in more than a hundred years in Guyana, around the Caribbean and even worldwide, is for the police to charge and “for you to have your day in court to defend your name.”“This was done for myself …Mr. Benschop and for other prominent persons in Guyana, why is Henry Greene any exception for this?” Kissoon stated.According to the columnist, this judgment is taking human rights violation down a terrible pathway. Kissoon said this is not just the abuse of the rights of a woman, but also the abuse of a nation. He said that he is insisting that Greene should be charged based on the evidence that the DPP has and let him have his day in court.Kissoon said that if the police are prevented from charging people, then the rich and powerful would make use of this route which Greene has taken. Given this judgment, Kissoon has called on the Leader of the Opposition and opposition parties to call for Chang’s resignation. In the interest of justice, Kissoon said that an emergency meeting should be held with the parties and ask for Justice Chang to be sent back to normal judicial duties.Social Activist, Mark Benschop was also harshly critical of the ruling.He said that while the Chief Justice has his right to his decision, citizens also share their right which is their constitutional right to protest peacefully against his decisions.Benschop said that he agreed with the recommendation of the DPP that a rape charge be instituted against Greene. But he further told Kaieteur News that he isn’t surprised that the Chief Justice has made this ruling. “We thought it was better for the court to decide that during the trial…it’s a sad day for women…”Chief Justice Ian Chang on Thursday ruled that the Director of Public Prosecutions’ recommendation that Police Commissioner Henry Greene be charged with rape was irrational. Chang read out his 65 page decision to a packed courtroom consisting of lawyers,Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping, reporters and members of women’s rights groups.A few weeks ago the Chief Justice had directed the DPP to show cause why a Writ or Order of Certiorari should not be issued to bring up to the honourable court, and quash the advice tendered by the Director of Public Prosecutions, given on or about the third day of February, 2012 to the Commissioner of Police (ag), Leroy Brummel and the Assistant Commissioner of Law Enforcement, Seelall Persaud, or either of them, to institute a charge of rape against Greene.Secondly, an Order or Rule Nisi of Prohibition directed to the Commissioner of Police (ag), Leroy Brummel and Assistant Commissioner of Law Enforcement, Seelall Persaud, to show cause why a Writ or Order of Prohibition should not be issued preventing them from acting on the said advice of the Director of Public Prosecutions, or from instituting the said charge of rape against the applicant, on the ground that the said advice by the Director of Public Prosecutions is irrational, unreasonable, unfair, unlawful, unconstitutional,Jerseys NFL China,? null, void and of no legal effect.In December last year,Cheap Jerseys Outlet, a 33-year-old mother of two alleged that she was raped by Greene after she had sought his assistance in a police matter that she was engaged in.After weeks of investigations conducted by independent investigators from the Jamaica Constabulary Force and amidst much speculation and anxiety,Cheap Jerseys, the Director of Public Prosecution Shalimar Ali-Hack advised that Green be charged with rape.But the Chief Justice in his ruling, said that “while the complainant did set out circumstances which unequivocally point to Greene’s commission of the offence of rape against her, it strains one’s credulity to believe that she, succumbing to verbal pressure and any threatening conduct by Greene, came out of a car and entered the hotel room without seeking to run away or escape from Greene,NFL Jerseys From China, even though he had expressly made clear to her his intention of having sexual intercourse with her”.Also taken into consideration in the
