ON June 18, 2006 Mr. Freddie Kissoon wrote in the Kaieteur News and headlined, ‘Mahadai Das told me she was raped’.  This occurred during her National Service stint when a budding political aspirant was in charge. On September 18, 2011, Dr Ian McDonald, the noted literary critic, wrote in the Stabroek News and headlined: ‘The last poems of Mahadai Das’. In his article he lamented the greatness of this budding and talented poetess of Guyana, and her tragic life and her early death.
Would Freddie Kissoon, this noted vocal and prolific critic, defender of womanhood and the sanctity of marriage reveal to his wide readership what Mahadai Das told him in full detail?
