Ramlogan, Ramdeen return to court
Anand Ramlogan -
INDICTMENTS have not yet been filed against former attorney general Anand Ramlogan and former UNC senator Gerald Ramdeen.
And, a new prosecutor will have to be appointed since the one previously assigned to the case, Mauricia Joseph-Patrick, is no longer with the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions, having been appointed a Master of the High Court.
Both men appeared virtually before Chief Magistrate Maria Busby Earle-Caddle on allegations of conspiring with Jamaican-born Queen’s Counsel Vincent Nelson for Ramlogan to misbehave in public office as AG, by accepting money from Nelson as reward for giving him state briefs.

The practice directions put a restriction on in-person hearings except in special circumstances for the rest of the year. They also suspended all jury trials until December 31.
In its letter to Gaspard, the association said it noted concerns raised by members over the “challenges posed by virtual hearings concerning the trial process.
