dc.description.abstract | Opponents of former Guyana President - Desmond Hoyte are accusing him of precipitating the collapse of the People’s National Congress (PNC) with his decision to expel his former Deputy - Hamilton Greene from the party. Greene was charged and expelled for attacking Mr. Hoyte in public – correspondent Sharif Khan reports. Three condemned men are challenging the constitutionality of the reclassification of death row inmates; as a result the reclassification process has been suspended.

The authority of the Trinidad and Tobago’s House of Representatives is being challenged in court. British Queen’s Counsel - Jeffery Robinson and MP Ramesh Lawrence Maharaj claims that the Speaker of the House infringed the rights of MP Subash Panday, when the speaker asked him to withdraw an allegation of corruption made against unnamed government ministers - under Section 14 of the Constitution - correspondent Tony Fraser reports.
