This will be the second joint event for Navin Ramgoolam, Paul Bérenger and Xavier-Luc Duval. Last Friday, the leaders of these three parties met and then held a joint press conference. Navin Ramgoolam announced that on 12 March, the leaders of the three parties will hold a flag raising ceremony. Navin Ramgoolam said the event will probably take place at the Caudan Waterfront.
The three political leaders also commented on the conflict between the Police Commissioner and the DPP. For Navin Ramgoolam, It is the “statement of the Commissioner of police that constitutes an evil precedent”. For him, this is “totally unacceptable”. He stressed that it was the Government Information Service and not the police that issued the statement in question. For him, the content calls into question the fundamental principle of any democracy, namely the concept of separation of powers.
By openly criticizing a decision of the Moka court and the DPP, the police commissioner was “misguided,” said Navin Ramgoolam. Moreover, no CP before Anil Kumar Dip would have done such a thing.
Paul Berenger expressed his support for the DPP and invited the police boss to get his act together. Agreeing with him, Xavier-Luc Duval estimated that this communiqué was issued to sow panic among the population.
The three parties unanimously condemn the communiqué issued by the Police Commissioner. The statement issued by the police chief continues to make waves and the political class is not sparing to comment on the situation.
