Former attorney general John Jeremie is “disgusted” by then-prime minister Dr Keith Rowley increasing his salary and take a million-dollar backpay and generous pension before demitting office, while giving workers a mere 4%.

He said so yesterday in defence of his shocking move on Monday night to publicly endorse UNC leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar and his intent to cast his vote for the party in the April 28 general election.

He told the Express in a telephone interview yesterday that it is frightening that the PNM abuses the authority of the State to “persecute and prosecute” people.
