Published

A female constable in the police force has reported an alleged assault against a Member of Parliament and is dissatisfied with the lack of action taken.

The incident is said to have occurred at an event late Friday night, where the constable was working.

Before the incident, the constable noticed that the MP appeared intoxicated.

The MP touched the constable’s cheeks without her consent, prompting her to push him away.

The MP then grabbed onto her uniform, causing some buttons to be undone and partially exposing her.

The constable expressed her disappointment with the incident and the lack of action taken by her superiors after reporting it.

    If you know Antigua politics, you should know that the MP involved is most likely (95%) the one your asking if his suspension was lifted. If you want to talk about nastiness, first look there.
