IT’S the truth.
Defence attorney Criston J Williams said yesterday that Defence Minister Wayne Sturge’s statement in Parliament last Friday that police had prior knowledge of a threat on the life of State prosecutor Dana Seetahal was no lie.
According to Sturge, police had received intelligence of an intended hit on Seetahal before the attack (that occurred in May 2014). He said the information had been shared with relevant law enforcement units, without publicly naming specific suspects, and that investigations were ongoing to determine how the warnings were handled.
