Several persons last evening held a candlelight vigil in front of State House on Main Street,Jerseys Wholesale, as part of their ongoing movement for “justice and compensation” for the three Lindeners, who lost their lives and those who were injured when Police opened fire during a protest at Linden against electricity tariff hikes.Present at last night’s vigil were representatives from A Partnership for National Unity (APNU), the Alliance for Change, and several social activists including Frederick Kissoon.The three-hour vigil which started at 07:00hrs attracted about 50 persons and according to Kissoon, the vigil is indefinite until certain demands are accepted by the government.He said that they are not only fighting against the electricity rate hikes but also for justice and compensation for those who lost their lives, and for the Minister of Home Affairs,NFL Jerseys Wholesale, Clement Rohee to be charged with murder.At the vigil, persons were shouting “Rohee must go, Rohee must go,” “We want justice,NFL Jerseys China, we want answers,Cheap Jerseys Online,” “the Hone Affairs Minister must go back to school.”Kaieteur News understands that the vigils will be held at night, while Lindeners would be protesting during the day until their demands are met.And scores gathered Sunday evening at Parliament building also in solidarity with Linden during its “dark time.”The vigil saw the presence of some prominent citizens including Attorney at law Christopher Ram and Working People Alliance (WPA) executive Dr. David Hinds as well as members of Youth Coalition for Transformation (YCT).With their candles erected, the group sang hymns and reminded passersby that Linden “should not have to stand alone during this struggle.”Frederick Kissoon, who was also as Sunday’s vigil, commented that the “horrible ordeal”, which left three dead, cannot be overlooked and he and other concerned citizens’ pledge their continued support.Kissoon said that the call for the removal of the Minister of Home Affairs must be inflexible. He noted that the reverberating demand in Linden signals that there will be no movement until their calls are responded to.Asked if he thinks the response towards such a call will be different from those before, Kissoon said that “there is no guarantee, but one must not be deterred.”Kissoon further noted that the Private Sector Commission (PSC) only seeks negotiation with the opposition when the government is not in the driving seat of “whatever dispute,” and urged that the opposition ignore calls for meetings with the body at this time.Faced with the question of if Linden should have lost all empathy since the violence and looting, Attorney at Law Christopher Ram said that “our presence out here says different; the leadership in Linden has condemned those actions.”He said that from his understanding of the situation, the people of Linden are only seeking justice and do not support any looting or violence.Ram said that the killings cannot be justified and such could have been avoided had the government been open to negotiation.Asked whether Linden should have been faced with a hike in electricity tariffs, Ram cited remarks from the Finance Minister’s budget speech that it is a progressive realignment of the electricity rates, stating that it is a wrong benchmark to use since GPL is a “high wastage” supplier.Further, Ram stressed that the 800% increase is unconscionable. “That can’t be a progressive realignment… the society just will not be able to pay. If the government wants progression,NFL Jerseys Store, there should be an immediate withdrawal of the hiked rates announced. There then should be a progressive increase over a period of time,cheap jerseys,” Ram stated emphatically.He also opined, that the monies saved from the “budget cuts” should be made use of towards the economic development of Linden “rather than wasting money on a Marriott or airport project that we don’t need.”Ram said that the Army’s removal of the bodies simply doesn’t “smell well.” He said that that move justifies raised suspicion.Questioned whether he agrees with the call for Prime Minister Sam Hinds to resign, Ram said that the call is well justified as Hinds is the representative for Linden in parliament and the Minister with portfolio for electricity, and “what has happened in Linden is a failure of both.”“Time is of the essence for the President to visit Linden; the longer he takes the more difficult it will be for a solution. Had he responded to the threat of a five-day shutdown, there would have been no killings,” Ram said.Dr. David Hinds said that he maintained his call that the opposition s
