Debideen’s lawyers urge fair probe

Chief Magistrate (Ag) Brian Debideen is innocent until proven guilty, and the execution of a search warrant against him does not establish that he committed any criminal offence, his attorneys said yesterday.

On Monday, armed with a search warrant, police descended on the Gulf View, San Fernando, home of the Chief Magistrate and seized his electronic devices.

The warrant was executed as part of a wider investigation involving local and international law enforcement agencies.
