As she extended condolences on the passing of Councillor Romona Victor of the Siparia Regional Corporation, and her husband Rodney Ramsumair, Opposition Leader Pennelope Beckles says, death, grief, and the scourge of domestic violence transcend political affiliation.

Beckles says her thoughts and prayers are with the families, loved ones, colleagues, and the burgesses of Siparia East / San Francique South who are affected by this heart-breaking event.

"From all reports, Councillor Victor, who was a representative of the United National Congress, served her community over the past several years with great commitment. In this moment of deep loss, politics holds no relevance,'" she wrote in a social media post.
