Attorney General (AG) and Legal Affairs Minister Anil Nandlall, SC has rejected claims that the family of United States (US)-sanctioned and indicted Opposition Leader Azruddin Mohamed has secured a court order granting them unrestricted access to him at the Lusignan Prison, insisting that no such ruling was made.

Nandlall made the disclosure while responding to questions during an NCN programme, following an incident on Friday in which Hana Mohamed reportedly turned up at the prison and waved a document to a prison officer, claiming that it was a letter confirming that a court order had been made granting the family unrestricted access to the detained Opposition Leader. The AG, who said he appeared in the court proceedings from which such an order would have had to emanate, maintained that no order granting unrestricted visits was issued.
