OUTSPOKEN senior attorney Israel Khan symbolically and dramatically destroyed a framed photograph of Chief Justice Ivor Archie at his Justitia Omnibus Law Chambers, St Vincent Street, Port of Spain, on April 3.
Khan, head of the Criminal Bar Association (CBA), said Archie, as chairman of the Judicial and Legal Service Commission, should be investigated for Marcia Ayers-Caesar’s forced resignation as a judge in April 2017.
His call follows the ruling of the UK Privy Council on March 24, which upheld an earlier ruling of the Court of Appeal that the JLSC wrongfully pressured Ayers-Caesar into resigning and acted beyond its authority in breach of the protections provided for by section 137 of the Constitution.
