In a significant development within the legal system, Prosecutor General Gracia Paragsingh has officially relieved Reshmi Rathipal, a public prosecutor, of her duties. The decision, announced on Wednesday, October 29, comes as a formal dossier has been submitted to President Jennifer Simons, urging her to take appropriate measures against Rathipal. The Public Prosecution Service (OM) has stated that this action was deemed necessary due to issues related to the official’s performance. Further steps in this matter remain pending, subject to the discretion of the competent authority. The Prosecutor General’s decision was made in consultation with the OM’s Management Team. While awaiting the President’s final decision, Rathipal has been temporarily suspended from her position. This move underscores the OM’s commitment to maintaining integrity and accountability within its ranks.
