Source- Real News Antigua: The trial of suspended police officer Ray John has been adjourned again, this time to January 17, 2024, at the request of the prosecution, represented by Acting Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Shannon Jones-Gittens.<\/p>

\"\"<\/div>\n

Sources report that John\u2019s lawyer, Hugh Marshall, Jr., was not in court today, December 12, and the DPP reportedly said she had been advised that he would be unavailable. However, Michael Archibald, who represents John\u2019s co-accused, was present.<\/p>\n

Those watching the matter say the adjournment appears to be another step in the authorities\u2019 attempts to discontinue John\u2019s prosecution \u2013 for alleged fraud involving the creation of Antigua and \/Barbuda passports in St. Vincent.<\/p>
