Unsubstantiated and unreliable

Former TSTT acting chief executive officer Keino Cox has questioned the independence of attorney Samantha Singh-Poona, alleging that she acted as the private lawyer of the company’s corporate secretary before investigating some of the same matters involving him.

Cox said Singh-Poona had issued a pre-action protocol letter against him on behalf of corporate secretary Viveka Pargass in her private capacity.

He contended that her subsequent role as an investigator raised questions about the credibility and impartiality of the investigation.
