I SYMPATHISE with the death of Mr. Courtney Crum-Ewing and especially the manner of his death. Condolences to his grieving relatives. I hope the perpetrators will be caught and brought to justice. However, letter writers and opposition supporters are trying to link the PPP to this killing. This killing can be a drive-by shooting by his enemies or business associates. So I am asking people to stop the speculation and let the police do their job.

The Opposition wants political mileage out of this killing and protesting in front of the Attorney General’s office as if the Attorney General has knowledge of this killing. They are putting the Attorney General, Anil Nandlall’s life at risk for their own selfish benefits.
Why didn’t the protestors picket the police stations as they did in the past when there is a murder? Why select the AG’s office? These protestors and the Opposition are not giving the police a fair chance to solve this murder. Instead they made inaccurate pronouncements immediately after the murder.
I hope the police solve this crime.
