DPP was never charged

Editor’s Note: Leyland Chitlall Roopnaraine’s letter, “A litany of bungling in the legal system with no end in sight,” which was published in the Saturday 1, 2022 edition of Stabroek News, included the erroneous suggestion that the Director Public Prosecutions was one of seven persons charged with fraudulently obtaining under-valued house lots. In fact, the DPP was questioned by the Special Organised Crime Unit (SOCU) as part of the investigation into land sold in the Pradoville 2 housing scheme but was never charged. Stabroek News regrets the erroneous publication and any inconvenience it may have caused.
