Rough time

Share post:

Young lawyers are getting a rough deal from some members of the Royal Barbados Police Force, president of the Barbados Bar Association Andrew Pilgrim has claimed.
And Pilgrim, along with former Attorney?General Mia Mottley, wants it to stop.
They are so serious about the way they believe young attorneys are disadvantaged in attempting to ply their trade at police stations, they may eventually seek an audience with Commissioner of Police Darwin Dottin to discuss the matter.
Pilgrim raised the issue last Thursday in the Bridgetown Traffic Court of the District “A” Magistrates’ Court after he, Mottley, Bar?Association past president Wilfred Abrahams, and Queen’s Counsel Elliot Mottley were forced to wait for more than two hours for a charge sheet in a matter involving attorney Rashda Lani Daisley, a junior at the Mottley Chambers.
