COME December 11, City Magistrate Judy Latchman is expected to make her ruling in the matter involving Kwame McCoy, former Liaison Officer under the PPP government; Sean Hinds and Jason Abdulla who are on trial for throwing faeces on newspaper columnist, Freddie Kissoon

On Tuesday, attorney Latchmie Rahamat who is representing McCoy; Glen Hanoman who is holding for Abdulla and George Thomas who is representing Hinds made their closing arguments which were then addressed by Police Prosecutor Shawn Gonsalves.
Magistrate Latchman after hearing both sides adjourned the matter until December 11 for decision.

On May 24, 2010 at around 19:00hrs Kissoon had just emerged from Nigel’s Supermarket on Robb Street and had already entered his vehicle when a man walked up to him and threw the faeces in his face. Kissoon managed to drive behind the perpetrator, who ran north along Light Street then west into North Road before jumping into a waiting white AT 192 Toyota Carina motorcar and escaped.

A soiled Kissoon tried to intercept the car, but was forced to back off to avoid a collision.
Police sources have since revealed that McCoy had been identified as the alleged mastermind behind the attack on Kissoon, and that Abdulla and Hinds confessed to the crime while in custody.

Hinds had provided security services to a number of PPP personalities, while Abdulla also worked at the then Office of the President and is now a functionary at the PPP’s Freedom Radio, housed at the party’s headquarters on Robb Street, Georgetown.
