KINGSTON, Jamaica – JAMAICA'S Attorney General's Office yesterday indicated that it intends to call four witnesses to the stand as the Government began to present its case in the first sitting of the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) in Jamaica to hear the case against the Barbadian Government by Shanique Myrie.
The court, which is being adjudicated by a panel of seven judges, is being held at the Jamaica Conference Centre in downtown Kingston and is hearing arguments from Myrie that her human rights were violated after she was subjected to two dehumanising cavity searches.
Yesterday, Myrie rested her case and allowed for Attorney Dr Kathy-Ann Brown to present her arguments on behalf of the Jamaican state, which is acting as intervener in the matter.
