WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THE COMMISSION OF INQUIRY ON THE DISTURBANCES OF APRIL
10 AND 11?

FOROYAA has been receiving many enquiries concerning the fate of the
Commission of Inquiry into the Disturbances of 10 and 11 April 2000.

The Coroner's Inquest has been completed. The report is supposedly submitted
to the Attorney General's Chambers. The Coroner was requested to appear
before the Commission of Inquiry. There was talk of incorporating the
Coroner's Report with the report of the Commission of Inquiry. Everything is
at a standstill and nothing is being said by anyone.

It is, therefore, essential to raise the alarm that people are still
interested in knowing about the outcome. This should also be done without
delay. The speed with which allegations of coup d'etat and murder are
brought before the courts emphasises all the more the need for speedy
justice in this important case. Those responsible for the inquiry should
inform the public what is really going on.

We hope the public will be duly informed of developments without any delay.

The slogan of the student was that justice delayed is justice denied. It is,
therefore, necessary to back principles with action.
