Opposition Warns PM Over Defamatory Allegations

The Opposition has issued a stern warning to Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar over her controversial allegations that they are linked with paedophiles and drug traffickers. The Prime Minister made these statements on social media, accusing the PNM of being against the government’s anti-drug efforts and implying a connection with local drug mafias. Opposition Leader Pennelope Beckles has refuted these allegations, calling them distractions and warning the Prime Minister against repetition. She asserted her intent to explore legal options in light of these defamatory statements. Following the Prime Minister’s comments, Beckles and her family received death threats, leading to a Diego Martin man being charged with threats to kill. Beckles expressed concern over the growing politics of hate and division, urging the Prime Minister to moderate her language.
