Rae Town Division Councillor Rosalie Hamilton is now being represented by attorney Charles Ganga-Singh in the defamation lawsuit brought against her by Kingston Central Member of Parliament, Donovan Williams.

The matter came up for mention in the Supreme Court on Monday, with Ganga-Singh appearing on behalf of Hamilton. The case was subsequently adjourned until October 14, 2026, to allow the attorney sufficient time to familiarise himself with the proceedings.

The lawsuit stems from a bitter political dispute between the two Jamaica Labour Party representatives. Williams, who is the Member of Parliament for Kingston Central and a junior government minister, filed the claim after a series of private voice notes recorded by Hamilton were leaked from a party WhatsApp group and circulated on social media.
