BASSETERRE, St. Kitts, CMC – The leader of the main opposition People’s Action Movement (PAM) Tuesday accused the police of colluding with the ruling St. Kitts-Nevis labour Party (SKNLP) and called for fresh general elections in the twin island Federation.
Last weekend, the police denied the PAM permission to stage a protest march in the capital on Wednesday and warned persons they would be prosecuted if they participate in any illegal march.
PAM has already described the decision of the police “as a deliberate effort to frustrate the wishes of the people and their rights to free expression and to demonstrate”.
