FORMER Attorney General Anand Ramlogan is squaring off in a legal issue against embattled Police Commissioner Gary Griffith in what is a new twist to a personal conflict.
Ramlogan has filed an interpretation summons in court over Griffith being named acting commissioner after the expiry of the commissioner’s substantive term.
The ex-AG is acting on behalf of Ravi Balgobin-Maharaj, a social activist.
Griffith is expected to be a State witness in the hearing of corruption-related cases against Ramlogan and others, which were laid in May 2019.
Ramlogan is on $1.2 million bail, and fellow attorney General Ramdeen on bail of $1.5 million, each with a surety.
But the conflict between Ramlogan and Griffith goes back to the tenure of the People’s Partnership, and it pertains to highly personal matters.
Associates of both men know there is no love lost between them as a result of a domestic situation that developed toward the end of the PP’s term of office.
Now they are legally confronting each other in the courtroom.
