Antigua and Barbuda’s political spotlight shifted sharply to police headquarters today, where Opposition Leader Jamale Pringle was summoned for questioning over the burning of APUA telecommunications materials at Morris Bay.

He was wrongly and falsely accused
I wonder what are you doing? Others taking a mile but how much distance are you taking?
Leader Pringle was first accused in Parliament. The PeeeM threatened to go over the AG and the commissioner. Then again on his radio station. Pringle was wrongly accused. The alp destroyed those pipes or whatever to deflect from the Bronco scandal.
As a press organisation you should get your language right. He was not summon to the police station, he was invited for a voluntary interview!! As everyone in Antigua knows, the whole thing started by the dictator Gaston Brown uttering his bias suspecions in the right ear, who jump to his every command. There was absolutely no evidence that Pringle done anything wrong, except in the mind of the PM. Neither fhe GG, AG nor the police commissioner have any balls to call out wrong doing of GB!
Nice narrative Antigua.news. job well done. 👏. Looking forward to hearing and seeing how this one goes.
PM Leave Pringle alone please and thank you! Let that die
In politics is anything. You enter the arena…now stay in the ring and fight!.
Wrongly accused??? He’ll no! The fact that Pringle was allowed to leave the interrogation without charges(s) means absolutely nothing. Had he been arrested then discharged, the lunatic fringe would/might have cause to rejoice. Pringle was not “released” because he was never “held” The pathetic liars in the UPP are spreading a narrative that they know would be swallowed and digested by their simple mobster-minded supporters who seem allergic to commonsense.
As a leader-in-waiting, Pringle did the unthinkable! He brazenly broke the law when he erected his tent on public property without permission. He compounded this illegal act by opting to completely ignore the demand from the DCA to cease and desist – to. correct his illegal conduct. He blatantly refused. In the meantime, persons acting on behalf resorted to instigating public unrest by leaking the date of the DCA deadline to remove his unlawful tent. That is a FACT because one his disciples tried to convince me to come to that area to stand in solidarity with Pringle on the day of the sceduled forceable removal of his illegally erected tent. I said “NO”! After I pointed out to this misguided disciple that I would not get involved in sanctioning and condoning illegal activities, the poor fellow admitted that he, himself was conflicted but felt he was doing his part for the pathetic party. The Police had every right as a functioning, effective and efficient body responsible for Law and Order, to at the very least, question Jamale Pringle. Who the hell is Jamale Pringle that he can flout the law with guaranteed impunity???
Another scandal, another drama… when will we get clarity instead of speculation?
When it comes to the DCA then we can say he broke the law by not removing his tent upon instructions but this is not what is on trial here. It is whether he had anything to do with the burning of pipes. And we know de man not into demkinda things!
i REALLY DONT SEE WHAT THE BIG DEAL IS. They just had to make it into an event. Just go quietly and answer questions but it had to be a soap opera
