00:00Attorney at law and former PSC chairman Nizam Mohammed says the administration of justice appears increasingly disconnected from the concerns
00:10being raised by citizens over the Kiyosili matter.
00:14He says, many members of the public remain unconvinced that the full implications and the outrage surrounding the situation are
00:23being fully understood by the authorities.
00:25This particular incident has brought the relationship between the protective services and the public to a head and this matter
00:42must be addressed and sorted out and it has to be done as a matter of urgency. Time has run
00:49out.
00:50Mohammed also points to growing concerns over the lack of transparency surrounding the police investigation and the lengthy delay before
00:59charges were announced.
01:00For reasons best known to the administrators, we have gotten to this stage and that is where we are so
01:09that it is going to, it is mushrooming and it is going to develop and tensions will be created, more
01:19tensions will be created.
01:21He further tells the morning edition that based on the public circumstances surrounding the matter, he does not believe any
01:29ordinary jury would easily convict Seeley.
01:32You are dealing with a woman, you are dealing with a mother, you are dealing with a paralyzed woman. The
01:39woman is going to face manslaughter charges. You think any jury in Trinidad and Tobago will find that lady guilty
01:47of anything?
01:48Mohammed believes the entire process will become convoluted. Nicole M. Romany, TV6 News.
