Former high-ranking directors of the Strategic Services Agency (SSA) have commenced legal ­action against the State for unfair ­dismissal, with one ex-director claiming he was asked to identify Indians in the agency to fire.
The ex-employees are former director of the agency Bisnath Maharaj, former deputy director Keron Ganpat, former director of intelligence Carlton Dennie, former assistant director of information and communication technology Alonzo Flemming, and former assistant director of administration Seukeran Singh, who were all fired by National Security Minister Edmund Dillon.
The men have retained the services of former attorney general Anand Ramlogan, and five pre-action letters were sent to the Office of the Attorney General on Wednesday with a 21-day deadline to respond before legal action is taken.
The claims total in excess of $6 million.
In the letters, the former directors stated their termination was unjust, claiming they were targets of political victimisation, unfair treatment and discrimination.
Former intelligence director Dennie stated in his letter he was summoned to a meeting by then director Matthew Andrews and asked to assist in weeding out the Indians in the agency.

And yes like Guyana Kamla ran T&T as if she thought that she was in India.

The notion of a party, which excluded people from outside of its ethnic base screaming when the new party treats them in kind is hilarious.  Kamla was considerably more blatant with her ethnic exclusion than Panday was.

Looks like you have a problem with Kamla, you should take it up with her. I am not aware that there is any voracity to your claims as you tend to lie about anything Indian.

Utter nonsense.

The facts are abundantly clear to show your blatant disregard for the issues.
