MORE THAN FIVE YEARS AGO, former Attorney General Dale Marshall accused Minister of Agriculture Dr David Estwick of brandishing a firearm in his direction in the precincts of Parliament.

The matter was referred to Parliament’s Committee of Privileges, but died a natural death.

Marshall is hopping mad his substantive matter was never resolved but the Democratic Labour Party (DLP) administration has referred a Barbados Labour Party (BLP) newspaper ad to be investigated by the same Committee of Privileges.

In that ad titled The Truth Must Be Told, the BLP urged Barbadians to come to a political meeting at Westbury Road, St Michael, tonight to “hear who misled the House of Assembly and the public of Barbados”.

Please read the full story in today’s Saturday Sun, or in the eNATION edition.
