Prime Minister wants police probe of emails

PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, CMC - Prime Minister Kamla Persad Bissessar Monday said she would ask the police to investigate allegations contained in emails read out in Parliament that purport to show members of her government, including herself, involved in attempts to undermine the judiciary, the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) and the media.
Speaking at a news conference, Prime Minister Persad Bissessar also denied being the author of any of the emails purporting to come from herself, Attorney General Anand Ramlogan, her Local Government Minister Suruj Rambachan and her security advisor Gary Griffith.
She described the emails, read out by Opposition Leader Dr. Keith Rowley as he presented a motion of no confidence against her administration as being “fabricated” and wondered why he had not taken them to the police for further investigation.
