The Office of the Attorney General will “stand by” actions taken by its Director of Public Prosecutions with regard to a recent Court of Appeal judgment, AG John Delaney confirmed yesterday.
Director of Public Prosecutions Vinette Graham-Allen was ordered to appear in the Court of Appeal yesterday after coming under fire for claiming the court had erred in a judgment – a charge the court claimed was “baseless.”
Delaney appeared before the appellate court yesterday on behalf of Graham-Allen’s stead, as she was out of the jurisdiction.
Last Friday, the justices criticised Mrs Graham-Allen for misleading the appellate court by making an urgent application for leave to appeal a judgment in the case of former death row inmate Godfrey Sawyer.
