The Judicial Committee of the United Kingdom-based Privy Council is to rule soon on the now 14-year-old Trafigura matter involving former Prime Minister, Portia Simpson Miller, and other senior members of the People s National Party (PNP).
On Monday the committee reserved its judgment following arguments from attorney representing the PNP officials, Alexis Robinson, and the attorney representing the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) on whether the PNP officials should give testimony in the case in open court or in secret.
While a date was not given for the ruling to be handed down by the UK Privy Council, the court said it will consider the arguments and later issue its decision
