Special prosecutor considered for Ramnarace murder case over conflict of interest concerns; DPP is aunt-by-marriage of accused killer Elmer Nah

Posted: Tuesday, January 3, 2023. 10:51 am CST.

By Aaron Humes: With the blessing of Prime Minister John Briceño, a special prosecutor will be hired to prosecute the case against Corporal Elmer Nah.

This is because of his relationship by marriage to Director of Public Prosecutions Cheryl-Lynn Vidal – she remains married, though estranged from, Assistant Commissioner of Police Marco Vidal.

While no decision has been announced on her recusal, Minister of Home Affairs Kareem Musa said, they will take no chances.

Corporal Nah is out on bail on a separate matter and the Police will oppose continuing bail on this charge.

Separately, Police are willing to look at past cases including the murder of Fareed Ahmad, where Corporal Nah was publicly accused of involvement, but in that case, it would involve a new statement from the accused in that case and the approval of the DPP.
