Jamaat leader loses 11 properties...

Jamaat al Muslimeen leader Yasin Abu Bakr yesterday lost his appeal in the Privy Council, as the State moved closer to selling off 11 properties to satisfy a $32 million debt arising from the destruction of Police Headquarters during the 1990 attempted coup.

Bakr was hoping that the Law Lords would reinstate an affidavit he filed, but the Privy Council, in a 12-page judgment, said it was irrelevant to the proceedings. â€œIt is on this ground of irrelevance, rather than that of any inconvenience or embarrassment to the Prime Minister, that the board consider that the decision of the Court of Appeal should be affirmed,â€

After all these years, this case is still going?

can anything that happens after more than ten years really be considered justice anymore?

lol!
You know how many people would love a civil suit that allowed them to sit for twenty years to earn the money to pay it off?
That's not justice. This thing should have been heard and a judgement should have been obtained, appeals and all that decades ago.

There are people in Trinidad to this day that haven't seen any justice from 1990.Their businesses were destroyed - No compensation from insurance. They were held at gunpoint, shot at...faced hordes of looters on pickups with guns...forced to barricade themselves in their neighbourhoods...

Will there be any justice for them in all of this? 20 years on?

point taken, but our legal system has always been slow. Thats nothing new. Its also similar in other countries. I'm not saying its good or anything, I'm just saying that its our reality.
And some justice is better than no justice.
